    I do think enlightened equipment has ready to ship quilts, but they aren't cheap.
    Also, Loco Libre's Saver Series lead time is down to 3 weeks, I believe. Jacks R Better pretty much always ships in 2 days- albeit they are not "budget" quilts.

    +1 on AHE. Also, for less than $50 you can "build" your own out of a Snugpak Jungle Blanket like I just did. I have zero sewing machine skills so just made it a velcro/snap/ shock cord footbox and added a snap at the top to keep it in place behind my neck and shoulders of i get cold. The only sewing was when I tacked the shock cord down on each of the bottom corners , but I did that by hand. I made a small hole in each bottom corner to run the cord through and one in the middle to pass it out and back in again so I could add a cord lock to cinch it closed. Then I added 2" heavy duty Velcro with a snap at the top and bottom of it to help keep it closed and ***BAM*** instant diy TQ ! I got the JB from Amazon for like $30 w/prime 2 day shipping and the snaps & Velcro at Wal-Mart for less than $15. If you need something larger, Snugpak also has an XL size that's 90" × 72" ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073C59WR7...ing=UTF8&psc=1 ) vs the standard Jungle Blankets 76"×64" that I used. Overall it was a super easy build and I now have an awesome summer TQ that's super wind resistant, amazingly water resistant ( ask me how I found out lol) , is antibacterial, antimicrobial, soft on the inside and is good to around 45°-50° and for less than$50 , how can you beat that?

    Depending on the rating of your UQ you can use a lighter top. I only have 1 UQ and its a 20* one so I just use one of the Black Diamond throws from Costco as a top blanket and I've been very comfy.

    Chinese brand. Just from reading their marketing materials, I don't think they know much about hammocks.
