What are the differences between snap and sewn. If I am going to ground sometimes as well as use in hammock, which one. How is it used on the ground. How does one know whether they need wide. Also, I could not find listing for size person for regular or long. Does this matter if I sometimes go to ground. I am 6'2''.
Thankyou
Wish I could find weight listed on the website.

I use my sewn end 20 on a pad often as my daughter still prefers the tent or if I'm missing the outdoors while sleeping on a couch. Haven't ever wished it would convert to blanket mode. Blankets will slip off or just move around on you while the footbox keeps the quilt on you, where it belongs. Easy to slip a foot out of it if you get too hot. Go for the sewn box as this will keep your feet warmer on colder nights. At 6'2 go for the long and if you have broad shoulders go for the wide. If you toss and turn you'll appreciate the extra width, but as I have narrow shoulders, I would opt for the reg width if I were to buy another one. Without a doubt, my favorite piece of gear is my burrow.
Go for the long/wide size. I'd suggest seen foot box if you're doing a lot of cold camping and snap if you'll be using it for warmer times
I'm 5'11'' and got mine standard/wide, with a sewn foot box that takes out some of the standard length ( I think it was 4'' ) and in a hammock can cover head and and all, and while on a bed just my head is exposed so for me it is perfect. I like to sleep on my side so the wide is a must exp if you have to go to ground or use a shelter. If I thought about it earlier I may have custom quick connects for shot cord in place of the small Triangle-ish d rings. But HG is awesome and I'm sure you will be happy.
