    What UQ to use

    I have just purchased a WB Eldorado and have not decided what brand of UQ to get. The Wookie will be the easiest to put on and use, but I am a very restless sleeper and am concerned about moving off the insulated part of the Wookie during the night. Was thinking about a HG incubator. Does anyone have any ideas or experience with this issue. Thanks

    This is a possibility with any underquilt. A shoulder gets cold or a knee gets cold, you become semi awake and Tuck yourself back in and go back to sleep. Happy hanging!

    Any UQ will work with it.
    Just make sure to properly set-up and adjust your UQ.

    I find personally the cut and fit of the incubator to have less fiddle factor and or cold spots. To me it was was easier to dial in

    I find my Wookie works great with the least "fiddle factor"

    I have a BB XLC and a couple wookies as well as the HG Incubator 0. No issues with any of them and the wookies are certainly set and forget. I sleep on my left side and back as well as shifting around a bit throughout the night. No issues with cold spots. The only time the wookie has been an issue is if i lay on my back and bend my one leg outward in a 'four' position. In that configuration my knee can get cold as it's outside the baffle coverage. That being said, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend one and I quite enjoy both the reduced bulk and fiddle factor of the wookie. It's my first choice. The temps I've used them in have ranged from 60+ to subzero F.
