drastic differences in fill weight / temp ratings

[m00ch]

I would have to say that I agree with all of your points but I still have to argue, that in my experience, the Wooki sleeps chillier than other quilts that come up higher on the sides in difficult situations.

I would like to say that I own all sorts of quilts and this is my speculation. I speculate that where the UQ and TQ meet is a tricky area to insulate when using a Wooki and you are pushing the temps. But on a “standard” UQ, the extra down wrapping up the sides higher provides some amount of warmth in that tricky area. My other speculation is that the extra quilt fabric going up the sides acts as a wind block, protecting the user just that little bit more.

I do not feel the Wooki is chillier in the insulated area than any other quilt. But as a system in difficult conditions I feel it is.

Nothing better than the voice of experience.

Looking at the design and thinking about how I sleep, I'm pretty sure I'd end up with an arm or a leg at least partially uninsulated in those "difficult situations." mainly where we're really pushing the temp rating of the quilt.
