Down Camping Blanket - Puffy, Packable, Lightweight and Warm | Ideal for Outdoors, Travel, Stadium, Festivals, Beach, Hammock | 650 Fill Power Water-Resistant Backpacking Quilt

I unboxed quilt evening if arrival, ruined from stuff sack, which of in air & let it sit in spare room. Next evening I got it & it puffed up beautifully!I purchased this this quilt for ultra light summer option to b used w my Nemo Short insulated RE.5 9 oz & Flex Mat R1.5 1lb 1.5 oz. Total Sleep System Weight 2 12.5. For cooler nights in spring & fall I'll use with my Vumos $20 sleeping liner 11oz; as temps drop off u stuff won't inside liner it'll keep u warmer. I can also pair it if needed on freezing nights w my 0° Down Outdoor Vitals quilt. It also fits perfectly in my packs brain to use as a pillow.I turned off my heat in house showing it to stop to o 57°F & stayed warm all night on my wool mattress. W heat at 60°F & ceiling fan on high I laid on couch w it stuffed around me as if camping & I was adjust too warm. I'll be heading out in winter hike in couple weeks for 3 nights on trail w current forecasted night temps 30-43°F & 2 nights in car. I'll post updated at that time.Pros- Budget Friendly- ultralight- great quality/ attention to detail- multi use; home, backpack, camp blanket, car camp, RV & perfect size to keep in car for emergency blanket (just don't keep in stuff sack!)Cons- water resistant down option not available at additional price point- Stuff sack needs a tab on bottom to slip ur finger thru for ease of pulling out quilt.Note: if u r inexperienced w using down I suggest u read up on it & learn about the different ways they r sewn & which is best for ur needs as well as how to care for ur down from storage, use, cleaning. These pictures of people hold quilt in light to see how much stuffing at seams is silly. Yes, when a quilt it nah is seen in this manner you'll always lose heat on seams no matter what stuffing is. If u want a 0°F quilt then u need to look at baffles. It'll also cost u $300-600. There needs to b sure around the down/ feathers & u for warmth. If the down is compacted there isn't any insulative value.

I use this as a warm(er) weather camping quilt. I have a good (and expensive) 10 degree quilt for colder weather, but it's twice as heavy and at least twice the bulk of this one. This quilt is great for me down to maybe 50 degrees at night. For reference, I generally run warm and like to be very cool at night. I've used it into the lower 40s, but even I felt a bit chilly at that temp.As mentioned, the packed size and weight are a big advantage of this quilt, if the weather is warm enough that you can be comfortable.The unpacked size is a bit smaller than I would prefer (maybe an extra 3-4" would be perfect), but I'm 6'-3". Even so, I was able to be fully covered, shoulders to toes. There just not a lot of margin for someone my height. I would think this would be perfect for anyone under 6' tall.I'm not the type to sit around the fire with a quilt wrapped around me, and therefore the "wrapping" snaps don't server much purpose for me. That said, my adult kids got there hands on it when I had it laying out and just loved this feature.I'm happy with the quality of the quilt. This is not a huge puffy cold-weather quilt, so don't expect to go explore the frozen tundra with this, but if you want a compact, light-weight quilt for those cool southern spring/fall (or cool northern summer) nights, this just might fit the bill.

This works awesome for me, it weighs just over a pound, I use it as an extra top blanket when backpacking, over my summer sleeping bag, I took it into the 40s easily, I believe this blanket alone would be good to about 45 at least. Packs down small, and the material feels soft and comfortable. Stitches look good and down puffs up nicely. Good purchase!

Small, compact, warm. Wish it was a little bit longer. Not as constricting as a mummy bag.

I have been so impressed with the quality, ultralight weight and warmth of this down blanket that I have been using it in place of my sleeping bag for camping. It is perfectly adequate just by itself for warmer nights, but with a few simple modifications, it keeps me warm and comfortable even when the air is 45 degrees F. I'm looking forward to testing it in even colder temperatures next fall. I have found that in cooler weather, the secret is to use this blanket as a camping quilt, so that you lay it OVER you, tucking the sides under your body. Camping quilts have become very popular with ultralight hikers, and their great versatility gives several advantages over sleeping bags. You can Google these if you're not familiar. Of course, an adequate sleeping pad under you is essential, just as with any sleeping bag.(Note: the blanket is shipped tightly compressed, and it may require several days or longer for the down to fully expand. Be sure to keep it in a roomy storage bag when it's not being used.)I found it beneficial to create a footbox with plastic snaps. This helps to prevent the light and slick blanket from sliding off while you are sleeping, and your feet stay quite warm. You can easily reconfigure to the open blanket if desired. The blanket has three snaps already installed that you can incorporate into the footbox, but a few more must be added. I found everything I need for $21 at the popular auction site: item # 201831863852. The kit includes K2 pliers, instructions, and size 22 KAM SNAPS (identical to the snaps on the blanket). Very easy to install, but be sure to carefully plan the placement of the snaps. Hopefully my photos will be helpful. BTW, adding several more snaps allows the joining of two blankets, which can still be used with or without footboxes. So many possibilities!To make the quilt even warmer, I have added a washable sleeping bag liner which can also be used by itself on warm nights. In cool weather, lie inside the liner and pull the quilt over you, with your feet in the liner inserted into the footbox. When it's even colder, use the quilt INSIDE the liner. Then, when you zip up the liner, it will close off air gaps and help to keep the quilt positioned around you. It works very well. I got the Vumos liner on Amazon for $18 with coupon, and it has been perfect. A long zipper allows it to open up, and, like the blanket, it is plenty roomy for me at 6' tall. And the Vumos has a wide hem at the edge under your chin, allowing for the simple installation of a draw cord to gather the liner and quilt snugly around your neck and shoulders when it's cold.Voila! An incredibly light and versatile sleeping bag/quilt system for use from late spring to early fall, total weight less than 2lbs, very compactable, and for around $100. I have bought three of these blankets from Get Out Gear; two for gifts, and the service has been outstanding.

As described. Light. Warm. Packs tight.
