    Incubator

    Have a older incubator. late 2012? Was told it was a 20 degree with 2 oz of overstuffed. Weight on it is 26.6 oz. Does this sound right? Seems heavy for a 20 degree. Just curios. Has the suspension where the quilt slide on it for position if this helps date it.

    Sounds within reason, especially if shell material is 20D-ish and down FP is 800-ish.

    I'm not sure when HG branched into Econ and Premium lines, so that might've been the norm at the time.

    Pretty close. Mine is 20+1oz, 90 argon outside/67 inside (pretty typical) and weighs exactly 23.0.

    Yeah I'd say that's about right for the time period. This was a little before my time, but we used to use 20D material (somewhat similar to our Econ line). We came out with the Econ line only a few years ago. Those weigh about 25 ounces without overfill. Your quilt most likely has 850 down in it, which requires a little less than the 800 fill we use in our Econ quilts nowadays.
