    Wilderness Logic vs Hammock Gear

    Trying to decide between a Top Quilt King or a Burrow. I am a bigger guy.. Any thoughts on them?

    Both have great reputations. I have a WL UQ, but my TQ is a DIY version of thier king sized. WL has great craftsmanship and DIY materials.

    Cannot speak to their quilts but Wilderness Logics hammocks are absolutely outstanding. I have nine hammocks (cottage vendors and a couple mass market). Two of them are Night Owls....sleep in one almost every night, had to buy a second for camping and outings.

    The workmanship is terrific and their service outstanding. Check with Marty at WL if you have questions, I'm sure he'd be happy to help.

    Both vendors make superior products.
    I own a WL King size TQ and I must say it has plenty of room to move and still remain comfortable covered.
    I really like everything WL makes but I must say both HG and WL products are made with "tender loving care" and you can't go wrong with either.

    I own six quilts from HG, but have never heard anything negative about Wilderness Logics. You probably can't go wrong with either choice.

    You'll like either as they are both are very well made quilts. I have 2 Hammock Gear quilts and 3 LocoLibre. I prefer my LocoLibre quilts because of the chevron baffling keeps the down in place a bit better than the long baffles.

    I have top quilts from both and they're both made extremely well. I'm not a really big guy, about 6', 200 lbs, size 12 shoe, but I do find the footbox in the HG a little more roomy. Not to say the WL footbox is too small or uncomfortable, just seems like I have a little more room for my feet in the HG quilt.

    I have owned quilts from both companies. Quality and attention to detail is excellent for both, but I like HG's design and features better.

    They both make fantastic products. I have a king wide but short tq from WL, it is amazing, and I really like the integrated frost guard, it comes in handy.

    I have the summer quilts, the top quilt king and the full length 20 degree under quilt. I have yet to be cold in them. I was looking at getting a 0 set from hammock gear but see that wilderness logics now make both in 0 degree.
