What type of hammocks do Wilderness Logics' full length under quilts work best with? I currently have an eno doublenest and a 2QZQ modified Hennessey for winter and summer use. I like everything I've read about the under quilts and would like to ensure they are compatible with my hammocks.

Thanks!

while i have not used mine on either of the hammocks mentioned, i feel sure that WL UQs would work very well on both,(assuming the HH is not a bottom entry)
and their on sale (http://www.wildernesslogics.com/Under-Quilts_c11.htm) now, cool!

I have the full length one they used to make with the synthetic fill.
Works fine for my ENO DN.

My wife just ordered me a 3/4 down WL underquilt for my birthday (per my instructions). I'll post how it fits on my Eno DN when I get it.

I have their 3/4 and it fits my HH & ENO double fine. I would think their full length works just as well.

I got my WL 3/4 UQ on Saturday - just in time for the hot weather :(

I wasn't too sure on the installation on my Eno DN, I was mostly going by Shug's video on UQs. I thought I had to clip it to my suspension, but once I stretched out the shock cord mount it became apparent that a clip (actually I used a soft shackle) was not needed. It was actually raising up my hammock by a few inches and causing my ridgeline to go slack due to the tension on the shock cord....until I got in that is.

It was so nice to not have to fiddle with the pad and I could immediately feel the warmth, which brought me to my next question..how do I make it not insulate me (it was in the mid 80's while I was doing this). Since there didn't appear to be any way to loosen the suspension to make it hang low, I went for moving it. It was quite easy to pull one of the suspension cords under me so that they were both on one side and the UQ hanging to the side. Replacing it back under me was also quite easy. I'm looking forward to this since I often am hot when I first turn in and then get cool in the middle of the night.

The construction all looks very good including the stuff sack. It would be nice to have a light cotton storage sack as well. I guess that will be one of my next projects.

I am very pleased with the product. Now I just need some cool weather and time to camp.

Thanks for all the feedback. I really appreciate it. Looks like it's time for me to buy a WL underquilt. I've been hammock camping for over ten years and will finally try an underquilt.
