    Woohoo! Can you post after you’ve used it? I’m trying to decide between 20, 30, 40.

    If you're in Minneapolis I can tell you to get the 20° at a minimum

    slept with it last night (low of 50) and it was just fine. was a bit windy with storms blowing in early morning. had a few gusts down my shoulders but just need to get the head cinch right. all in all was great. i'm looking forward to using it with 50 degrees and above. anything below that, i'll probably go with my 30 degree incubator.

    It's amazing how cold you can get in a hammock without an underquilt, in 50 to 70 degree weather. That Phoenix will be perfect for late spring and early autumn hanging.

    After many years and several brands of UQ's, I settled on HG two yrs ago and am very happy. I have a 20 and 40 Phoenix, as well as a 20 Incubator. The two 20s have overstuff which gives peace of mind but I don't think it's needed. Why not? Because my 40 Phoenix has taken me to the low 40s and was still cozy (I'm what I consider a "normal" temp sleeper). Could've gone lower for sure.

    The Economy series is a bargain. If I didn't have the Premium quilts I would definitely consider the Economy line.
