    I understand this is not a down insulation, I am wondering how it packs down compared to a down UQ. Really thinking it is time to make the plunge into UQ world and am wondering if it is worth the extra money for a down product.

    You will not be disappointed if you go with the any of Paul's quilts. I've had my New River almost 2 years and really like it. My grandson is starting to hang with us so he is using my extra gear. He'll use the NR and I just got a down UQ from Sean at Oxgear. I liked the NR so much that I had him make a down version. Same size, same suspension loops on the sides. The down packs a little smaller but not much.
    Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!

    I freaking love my River 1 Season Quilt. You wouldn't think I would need it here in the Caribbean but it gets just cool enough at night to need some kind of bottom insulation. The wind will rob you of all warmth even in the Caribbean. I sent a couple of email before ordering but never got a response back but when i got my quilt i didn't care anymore.

    Hey Cactucjack...just looked up your emails and I had sent a response to both.... Not sure where they went but got both your original inquire about what quilt to get, the order on our end, and your question about shipping time. You should have gotten a reply about the 1 season, your order confirmation from the and me letting you know it would ship the next day from when you inquired about production time. Sorry they did not get though to you.
