Cumulus Quilts

[Chew]

Can you actually get these delivered to the UK?

Theres every over country listed for delivery but not us

Surely that's ok then, as we're in the UK and not the US of A!

[Bearbonesnorm]

Chew, Cumulus don't deliver to the UK*. You need to buy one from an EU supplier ... 250 you fancied wasn't it?

*This would appear to be because there's a UK Cumulus importer but sadly they don't stock quilts or the new range of bags, Magic 125, etc.

[Chew]

Magic. Thought it was something like that.

I'll brush up on my French

View it in Chrome ... it'll translate for you

Or phone

They'll probably speak perfect English!

Yes, but will they understand 'our' version of English?

Chew,
I bought mine from:-
www.trekking-lite.com in Germany. They spoke English, took Paypal and delivered within a week. Would recommend both them and the quilts!

[ianfitz]

Got mine from a French site - high mobility gear. The man I emailed had good English.

After I ordered I got a mail from Jacek on info@cumulus.pl to say he would sell quilts to the uk as cumulus UK have decided not to import them.

Someone has some nice ultralight quilts on ebay. They seem good quality.

As a stockist of Criterion Sleeping bags (CUmulus new name) Ive been hounding them for a while to bring over the quilts, But sadly they are not keen. (sad face)

The last time I spoke with Cumulus direct they said "they can't sell to the UK YET!" so Hopefully soon

Are any of the cumulus owners side sleepers or move around a lot at night? I'm thinking of getting one instead of a new bag but I'm generally a side sleeper and also move around a lot at night and so I'm a bit concerned they might be a bit drafty in colder conditions.

cheers

I don't use cumulus quilts but have ones from UKHammocks and Enlightened Equipment (US).

I'm a side sleeper and don't have problems with drafts when moving about. Usually cinch the neck up and sleep in a base layer.

[Bearbonesnorm]

The Cumulus quilts aren't the widest available but even so, draughts aren't really much of a problem. If you were really concerned, strapping it to your mat should rule out the possibility.

[Artie Fufkin]

I got a Cumulus and havent had a problem with the draft. Being in a good bivvy will cut loads out and you can always wear base layers as mentioned above.
I prefer them to bags now!

I ended up going for the cumulus down comforter 350 as I like the idea of being able to open the foot box up of needed - hopefully should be here any day now

Did Cumulus supply you directly or did you get it from somewhere else?

[rudedog]

I got it from http://www.bivvyonsummit.de - they were only EU supplier I could find that had the M350 down quilt in stock. Its a bit of a shame as I wanted the hydrophobic down upgrade but this is only available from Cumulus direct. Despite my pleadings they wouldn't sell to me direct :(
