I would go with whoever has the best deal with the quilt plus shipping. Maybe consider the ECON line from HG, if you're on a budget and weight isn't extremely crucial. You won't find any fault with any of the inner circle Hammock Cottage Vendors.

I went with HG because they make quilts for Short People.So I saved a little weight on excess quilt that would not be needed.Quilts are like cars-they all will get you there.......eventually.
I just ordered a Loco Libre because they had a sale which basically allowed me to upgrade to 900 fill power for free. But I was also looking at the WBM and the offerings from UGQ. I like how LL and UGQ let you customize exactly what you want. Originally I was unhappy with LL lead times, then I realized, I'm ordering a 0° quilt that I won't need until winter really, so might as well get exactly what I want and be patient for once!

Been using an EE Revelation TQ (30*) and have been very happy with it's performance. Wanted to get another TQ for my wife, so I ended up recently ordering the HG Burrow 50. Then, with the LLG Saver Series ending, I bought the 40* Serrano TQ yesterday.
Check out the Enlightened Equipment Revelation. I have a 20 degree and a 0 degree. Both are amazing.

I am a big fan of just about any Loco Libre Gear quilt, owing to George's thoughtful design, craftsmanship, and baffle alchemy...
That said, I ordered a 20-degree UGQ Bandit when they first came out, and I was thoroughly impressed; Paul and Missy are having another sale right now, I believe. The new sewn footbox design on the Bandit is really awesome for cool-weather quilts and/or cold sleepers.

I went back and forth on the "hot box" sewn foot box from LL for cold weather sleeping, but ended up sticking with the 5" taper and the draw cord and snaps for versatility. I like the thought of using it as a blanket if I want. Sometimes up here in Maine we open all the windows when it is around freezing and watch movies in the living room, so I need a little extra warmth. Hahaha!

This is the problem with such a robust cottage industry. All the of these guys seem to make quality gear and are good people to boot, and I don't have a big enough budget to get one from each of them!
Just when I think I've settled on one, Bam! Another vendor gets my attention.
Decisions, decisions......

Lots of options... All of the vendors that frequent the forums offer high quality solutions. You won't be disappointed if you purchase from any of them. Pick something that looks right for you and pull the trigger. If you decide after using it that a different product would be a better fit... Equipment from these vendors hold its value. Lots of folks willing to purchase your gently used stuff..
