A few members here have one, including myself.
There are a couple of fatal design flaws, not the least of which is a non breathable bottom that produces heavy condensation and the fact that the bottom insulation is compressed beneath a person laying in it.
That said, it is other wise a promising design that could be done a whole lot better by someone with the diy skills to make it lighter and address its problems.

I just bought one off a whim, to help save a bit of money if I hike the AT. I am kinda regretting it but for $50 you get a hammock and a sleeping bag that will work in pretty cold weather(or so it says). Its not the lightest thing in the world but again its two items in one. I should pick up a rain fly which should bring the total weight up to 5 pounds.
I just noticed how messed up I sound in this post... haha.
Does anyone know how big it is packed? I wanted to get a Jam2 for a hike, but I may have to move up a size now... if not a few more. : /
