    I've used both a Potomac and a Snugfit with an ENO. Both work fine, but the Snugfit does fit it better.

    ENO is reported to be coming out with their own underquilt soon, but there is no indication of when, yet.

    I used my JRB Nest last night and it only got down to around 58. Underquilts can be used in not so cold weather to avoid using a pad if you so choose.

    My homemade peapod which is about 70 inches in diameter fits well on my ENO double. Be careful of the hook side of the velcro as it tries to attach to the ENO fabric and might cause wear over time.

    I think JRB has an ENO on their website.

    I have an ENO double - in fact I think I talked here to this group about how to hang it because it wasn't initially as comfortable as I expected, and thanks to Sparrow who said it should not be hung tight - anyway I have an Old Rag Mountain quilt from JRB that I bought for my Hennessey UL Explorer (never could get the suspension right, despite Jeff's suggestions), but surprise - it works great on the ENO double! I think this is because there is no bug net and I can easily reach out and see how its fitting then make adjustments. It keeps me toasty down to about 45 deg or so, colder than that and I need a closed cell pad under the heavy spots (like my *** and back) to stay warm.

    Also, suspension for the ENO is now really - I mean seriously - not tight (thanks sparrow) and I'm really starting to like this hammock. Its not really a flat lay, but its still very comfortable, and in the winter when there are no skeeters I like the top loading and freedom of no mesh around me.
