    Would you buy?

    I know eno uq are not on pair with the vendors here on the forum. But if you were limited to funds and could buy the eno Vulcan uq for 106 would you. Or would you do a pluq.

    Personally for about the same money look at an Arrowhead Equipment KAQ Jarbidge 3/4 length or New River if you want full length. Will save you a bit of weight over the eno if you are a backpacker.

    ...and you will have a better chance selling the KAQ for a better price should you decide to upgrade later.

    Thanks. It is actually cheaper than the eno. Will be getting the arrowhead instead.

    +1 on the Jarbidge. I have one and my son has one. I have no experience with the Eno products, but Paul is good people. Never have met him, but I bought a small item from him one time. When it arrived, the shipping had damaged the product. I knew this was not Paul's problem but I sent him a note letting him know the packaging didn't hold up well and for more expensive items he might want to consider a different form of packaging. In just a couple of moments, I received an email saying he was shipping me another item. He sent it priority mail on his own dime. I don't think you can get service (I wasn't even looking for another item) from the larger companies.

    I'm really questioning why ENO's UQs are so expensive, given their temperature rating and weight.

    Not to mention that with Arrowhead you are dealing with a top-notch vendor who will take care of your and enhance your experience.

    Don't have direct experience with their products, but the stuff from Wilderness Logics seems to be a good value based on the comparison shopping I've done.
