Hammock Gear Economy Burrow 0, +4 oz Overfill
Hammock Gear Economy Burrow is the warmest way to sleep in sub-freezing temperatures without breaking the bank. But thanks to its 850 fill power, it hardly even compromises on quality! The economy designation in its name does not due its performance justice. This 0 degree quilt is the warmest in our lineup, despite also being the least expensive, even when overfilled with 4 oz of down. Seriously, you get a total fill weight of 26 ounces, which is simple massive. In fact, it’s actually even warmer than Hammock Gear’s Premium Burrow (also with 4 oz of overfill). Check the numbers, it actually has a higher total volume of uncompressed down – AKA more total warmth.
The only drawback to this quilt is the 20d taffeta shell fabric construction. While there’s nothing wrong with this fabric in function, it’s just unnecessarily heavy for an object that rarely ever leaves the tent. Nonetheless, what a bargain for such a warm winter quilt. And lastly, please remember that even slim campers should size up to the wide width quilt, because HG’s standard width is designed specifically for hammock campers and won’t offer enough drape to form a seal around a ground-based sleeping pad.
