WBBB Hamock - Hammock Gear or WB UQ?

[Copenhagen69]

They have a wide range of offerings. It all depends on what you want as far as temperature rating, as well as full length versus partial length quilts. I've never been disappointed with any of their quilts and I've owned five over the course of several years.

Here is a link to a chart that compares all their different quilts:

thanks I will take a look at that and see if I can find something as well.

All the companies prices seem to be pretty close to each others, so it seems quality is the main factor

To add to the mix, check out Underground Quilts. Great gear and service.

Your welcome. But seriously, all of the cottage vendors here offer great products and have great customer service. Can't really go wrong.

My HG Incubator works great with my WBBB. Not suggesting you shouldn't go with the others, but you will not go wrong with HG.

Another thing to add to your decision. Jacks R Better quilts are most typically in stock and ship out the next day. A few of the other quilt makers have relatively good turnaround times on their quilts, but The Jacks will have a quilt at your door within a couple days of ordering. All of their quilts work great with a WBBB too.

hmmm I had not put much thought into that part . I guess I should check on the turnaround time of these quilts, thanks for reminding me

The Yeti is obviously a great choice for the Blackbird hammock because it was designed to work with it. The coolest thing about the Yeti is that it needs no adjustment. It comes stock with the perfect amount of shockcord to fit the hammock spot on. The other cool thing with it is that you do not need ANY biners or hardware to fit it on the Blackbird. Just loop the shock cords right over the whipping ends on the hammock and no tensioning is necessary. If you have a XLC Blackbird you need to add another small loop of shock cord on one end to account for the extra foot in hammock length. I have both the 3 season and Winter Yetis and love them because of the simplicity. They aren't quite as wide as the Hammock Gear quilts but I don't find I need anymore width than the Yeti offers.

thanks for the info ... I love the yeti too, but I am in need of a full length UQ this time.
