    Jacks R Better Hudson River

    I am really interested in this quilt. Anyone have experience with this quilt. It seems multi purpose.

    It is a real good quilt. Used mine as a TQ most of the time but did use it as a UQ too.
    See it in second video below as UQ.

    Just keep in mind that, though multi purpose, I do not think that quilt has a differential cut, such as all of the JRB dedicated UQs do. This means you have to be more precise and careful about how you adjust it, about not pulling it too snug up against your back, because it will be much easier to compress the loft and loose warmth than an UQ with a dif cut. Since you are going to need 2 quilts anyway, I personally would prefer this quilt as a TQ and a dedicated UQ for that purpose. Then again, there might be some other reason for needing a multi-purpose quilt, in which case all my JRB quilts are of very high quality and always keep me warm. YMMV of course.

    I like it, I use it as TQ with Mw3 UQ. Have used it as UQ for down to 45f and no cold butt. I'm slim, honestly could use the Mw3 as TQ too.

    I’ve used one on top and on bottom. I had no issues with it as an UQ in the mid-20’s.

    I love mine! I folded it up a little bit with some shock cord and use it as an under quilt with Ridgerunner, super toasty!
