I like the S.O.L. Thermal Bivy sack, sold by AMK. It is more durable and easier to repack. I have the blizzard bag and the optional bag for storage and carrying, which expands for easier repacking. I have not slept in it, but I do intend to when winter rolls around. I have slept in the AMK emergency sleeping bag and will say that it will save your life, but it is not the most comfortable. Like any vapor barrier, you need to let it breath or you will begin to get wet. A poncho liner or other blanket inside of it makes it a great deal more comfortable and warmer.
