Finally got to test the 10c quilt out properly over the last few nights walking the Northumberland Coastal Path.L2R24 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 20, 2024 4:57 pmI ended up getting the cooler weather version...my Cinder 2 arrived this morning and is currently in the tent in the back garden. Feels very warm in 15 degrees ...size wise the regular seems pretty good for me at 5'8" and quality seems spot on. The straps also seem to allow some wriggle room whilst keeping you covered. Was really torn between the 10 degree and 2 degree versions, but figured might be easier sticking a leg out on warmer nights being a quilt rather the Aegismax bag with 3/4 zip I've been using. @yourguitarhero - What's the lower functional limit on your 10 degree version? Sounds ideall for a summer in tye Pyrenees!yourguitarhero wrote: ↑Sat Apr 20, 2024 10:13 amI went for the warmer version.L2R24 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2024 9:49 am@yourguitarhero - which one did you go for if you don't mind me asking? I'm tempted by the "2 degree C" version but their site isn't clear if that's a "comfort" rating...yourguitarhero wrote: ↑Fri Apr 05, 2024 5:23 am a Sea to Summit Cinder Down Quilt from their sale.
I'd tried the Alpkit quilt before and found it too cold (seems it is generally poorly reviewed) so hopefully this is one works better for when I don't want to take my sleeping bag.
The bags and info leaflets it comes with are quite nice :)
I've also got the Alpkit cloud base and agree it's not terribly warm...
I've got a decent 3 season bag which does me fine down to freezing point so wanted this for summer camping - have a month camping in the Pyrenees in summer so thought it would be good for that.
I'll be in Northumberland next weekend so might try it then...
