Let's start with the temperature rating: 0 degrees. Last I knew, Target was an American retailer, so shoppers would be excused for assuming that's 0 degress Fahrenheit - a warm sleeping bag indeed. It even says 0 degrees Fahrenheit in the product specifications. But it also says Celsius right in the name, which is repeated again and again throughout the product page. Does the word Celsius have any meaning other than a system of temperature measurement? Because 0 degrees Celsius equals 32 degrees Fahrenheit and that's a vast difference when talking about sleeping bags. Which are we supposed to believe? The word "Celsius" sure appears a lot more frequently on the product page than "Fahrenheit".
Then there's the dimensions. They're listed as 79" x 39". But the picture showing two of the bags zipped together very clearly indicates they're each 33" wide. Which is it? The product write up says the dimensions are "more significant than a standard-sized mattress". What does that even mean? Does "significant" used here mean "larger"? If so, why not just say that? And while I'm familiar with twin, full, queen and king sized mattresse sizes, I have no idea a "standard" size mattress is supposed to be.
I know it sounds like I've ranting. But is really too much to ask that a product description from an established retailer provide accurate, unambiguous information so the shopper can make an informed purchase decision? Seriously, there should be laws against this.

Maybe it is rated to 0 degrees Fahrenheit. But if so, what's the point of calling the model "Celsius" when Celsius means one thing and one thing only: a completely different system of temperature measurement? If a customer complains that this bag didn't keep them warm down to 0 deg F, Teton and Target can point out that the description mentions "Celsius" no less than 6 times and the word "Fahrenheit" appears only once, and therefore it was a misprint. So sorrry.
Likewise, 39" is listed as the width in the product specifications, but is labeled as 33" in the picture. Gee, Mr. Disgruntled consumer, we don't know how that mistake slipped by, but you did have fair warning the true dimension might be 33". See? It says so in the picture right there.
It amazes me that the sheer volume of lazy, inaccurate and/or downright intentionally misleading product information has become so prevalent that as consumers, even those on a site devoted to making enlightened purchase decisions, we're somehow becoming tolerant of it.
