Has anybody tried one of the really cheap Chinese underquilts that are selling on eBay and other Chinese junk sites (DealExtreme, BangGood etc)?
Like this one:

A$50-ish, so that's under US$40.
Of course they're not going to be great, but how bad are they?
Some of them say "cotton" filling. Some say "hollow cotton", which must be a real achievement for the cotton farmers
I wonder if there may be something in the translation. I also have some really warm gloves that were advertised as "cotton" but are definitely synthetic. Maybe "fibre" translates loosely to "cotton"?
In any case, seems like an easier option than spending time modifying a cheap nasty sleeping bag into a cheap nasty UQ. Just cut to the chase and buy a cheap nasty UQ?
