The Incubator verses SnugFit verses Mt Washington 3

I have an Incubator but I haven't come close to pushing it to it's limit, 25 degrees about the lowest. I also have a JRB Sierra Sniveller TQ and Love it. I would say let the price be the deciding factor because I don't see one being dominant over the others.

Hey Scottybdiving, thanks for the recommendation.

If it is more around the 45F outside, and you put the Incubator on, do you find yourself getting way to hot?

Thanks,
John

This was a concern that I had when I was ordering it. It is primarily for my wife and she is a cold sleeper. However, I slept in it last weekend at my house and it was in the 40's. I was not too warm because I found it easy to adjust the temperature with the TQ, kind of like when you leave one leg out of the covers. I was very comfy and I am a very warm sleeper.

If I lived where you live, I would be cold too, even in the summer.

I went with a full length overstuffed UQ. I'll get some pics up in a couple of weeks - if you are not in a big hurry that is.

Look you want them all, you need them all. You deserve them after all the sacrafices you have done for everybody else. They take credit card, you have credit cards. If there is one you deside you don't like I'll take it off your hands.

Dutch, what a giver you are to offer up your assistance like that!

Nope, unlike Dutch who makes a bazillion dollars more than the rest of us

I have a spending limit

so, it will be a bit before I get one. I just bought my first hammock the other day (well, paid for it) and hope to get it (WBBB 1.7 DB) soon. After that I think I will pick up a tarp, and than a new pack, and than the UQ than the OQ. Sounds like the logical order of purchases to me... but, what do I know... I'm the noob around here.

Anyway, yeah, would love to see some overstuffed Incubator photographs. Can you confirm if they actually use 900 down and not 800 down, like their website says?

Thanks,
John

I've only tinkered with the Snugfit with my BB but I have to say I like the full length and the width allows me to snuggle right down. I do pair it up with a 4 season down bag but I'd agree the official ratings for the Snugfit are very conservative.
No experience of the others but I'm sure either one will do you right.
