Enlightened Equipment - Enigma APEX

I switched to an EE Enigma quilt this year to try to cut weight (Christmas present), Already used it in the low 30's and also at about 50f. Very happy with the switch.

I have used a Rumpl throw before but this year I bought the Enlightened Equipment Apex synthetic 40° quilt. I’m short so mine only weighs 17 oz. It’s on sale right now for 20% off which I think brings it to $176 ish. But if you’re need more budget friendly than that then I’d just go with a Rumpl.

I’ve 0F, 20F, 40F down quilts and a 30F Climashield APEX synthetic quilt. The synthetic is bulkier but good. It definitely does have its place when it’s wet or on a long multi-day hike where it could be wet. Also, I’m allergic to down and enjoy not waking up stuffed up when I use the synthetic

I think it's because they were good value back then, but their price has crept up to Katabatic, Nunatak, etc. Still worth it if you them on sale though. I had one of their Karo baffle quilts that was severely underfilled and it would not keep the down in place. Replaced it with an Enigma and it ways also underfilled for the rating and sent it back to get down added. Eventually replaced the Enigma with a Nunatak Sulo and had zero probems with it. They are also the company Defense Mechanisms making tactical gear, and some people might not like that.
