Cheap, light, and compressible.....
That's a 2nd hand down sleeping bag from Goodwill or similar converted to an UQ or TQ. It's only cheap because someone else took the wallet hit for it new.
Actually I would change that slightly and say:
Light, compressible, warm, cheap. Pick any 3.
Eg. Climashield - light, warm, cheap but not very compressible
Down - light, warm, compressible but not very cheap (at least 800-900FP)
Insultex - light, cheap, many layers is warm, not very compressible
and so it goes.
Cheers
Brian

Used down sleeping bag of reputable manufacture on Ebay...
Paid $45 for an older REI Bag... weighed about 3-4# before I modified it into a TQ.
I washed it with some Nikwash, total investment (including nikwash) $50.
