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.
Agree. I have both a 20* and 40* hammock gear burrow quilt. Also have both a Thermorest xlite and XTherm pad. Creates countless combinations with the ability to stack the quilts and using a bag liner to get down to 0*.
This would be my rec too. I have the original ZenBivy and often leave the sheet/hood at home to cut down on weight. A regular quilt is just fine. My kids love the Hammock Gear 20 degree quilts we have.
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 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.
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.
Quilts are better for lower weight and packability. The idea is that the insulation you lie on-top of in a bag gets squished and is not effective, so just remove that material. The feet are is still shaped like a bag though. Hammock Gear Burrow is a budget quilt option. I’m happy with mine, but supposedly the other brands folks have mentioned in these comments are more premium. You will want to purchase the strap system with a quilt if it’s not included. You use it to strap the quilt down to your pad, to prevent drafts.
I have a 20 degree Hammock Gear quilt and it changed my life. I used to use mummy bags and hated them. Also a side sleeper and could never get a good nights sleep. Once I switched to a quilt, it was a whole new world. I’ve yet to have any issues with my quilt. Super warm, lightweight, packs easily, it’s been great. I have that paired with a Nemo Tensor and it’s been a good setup. Check out the hammock gear website, they run sales seemingly nonstop so don’t ever pay full price for something there. If you sign up for email or text alerts, you’ll be endlessly spammed with sales from them.
