Based on 1 year's data from Mar 10, 2026 How it works
I wouldn’t get a cheaper sleeping pad. The tensor is great and don’t get the normal one as it will run colder. However I would reccomend a tent from Durston (best tents that happen to be light, or light tents that happen to be good (depending on how you want to look at it)). Definitely get a better sleeping bag. Some products in the top of my head is the REI magma bags (stay away from the 30, not enough insulation so there’s dead spots and cold). enlightened equipment quilt if you can afford it, hammock gear burrow for a bit heavier but is still great. After all that you should be at a similar price for better products that are also lighter.
REI bags alot will be limited rated so that 30 degrees isn't comfort rated but the rate you at least won't die if it's that cold. Hammock Gear Burrow Topquilt would be the best choice over EE. They are having a 30% off sale right now.
I would look at the Hammock Gear Burrow quilt and forget about EE. You can get a decently customed options for less than EE and it will actually keep you warm to 20°. I just ordered one about 2 weeks ago and it will be hear Friday. Its spec as a 20 degree regular length, wide body with draft collar and zipper foot box for sleeping on the ground and in a hammock. Also they are having 30% perfect off right now
I was a longtime skeptic of quilts, but I cut my weight in half for the same 30-degree rating with a Hammock Gear Burrow, which are reasonably priced and have regular sales. The straps work great with my Thermarest and I’ve been comfy in the 30s with it.
It's generally my neck of the woods. I've been good with a 20F comfort rated quit (Hammock Gear). I've taken the same quit to Jasper and hit -5 C and was still good except my exposed face. I tend to sleep pretty warm though.
The Burrow is a great quilt. All of our quilts are Burrow 20F.
I have a Katabatic and a Hammock Gear Burrow UL (which does not appear of their site anymore). Both are great. The main complaint that I understand about EE is they are generous with their rated temp. Not that they are bad quilts. But any quilt with less than 20D fabric is going to be a bit fragile. So don’t wear it like a poncho and go off to pee and let it get hung up in brush.
I've used an HG Burrow 20-degree for 5 years or so, and it's worked like a champ. I take good care of it and it still looks great. And it has gotten me through some cold nights!
I have the 20 degree hammock gear and love it so much. It was my first quilt and I was nervous since I do a lot of elevation camping. It’s has been so warm. I went with hammock gear because they are very well made, but cheaper than enlightened equipment.
Anytime you get a quilt, you need to slap the sides of the baffles and shuffle and move the down around. Down can get trapped at all the edges, so really shift that part around. Let the quilt reloft for a while if it's been shipped compressed. If you weigh it, and the weight in line with hammock gear's specs plus your 1 oz of overfill, it should keep your wife warm to the rated temps or lower. I've never had a hammock gear quilt sleep cold. Katabatic makes better quilts than hammock gear, but hammock gear quilts are serviceable and affordable.
Quilts, semi rectangular bags (Sea to Summit Trek and Ascent Down) or the Big Agnes Sidewinder series are what you want. The Nemo Spoon series of down bags are also quite roomy. I sleep on my side. I use Hammock Gear Econ Borrows most of the time and I have a Marmot Col -20F bag for anything 20F and below.
