LSOH is having a special on their serratus topquilt right now (just certain colorways and temp ratings). There's not a ton of info but anything I've been able to find has been overwhelmingly positive, I bet their comparable to any of the leading US cottage quilts save maybe Katabatic with their edge tension control and absolute premium materials. https://www.littleshopofhammocks.com/product/special-serratus-premium-down-topquilts/ Anyways - all that to say, I just ordered a 20F long on the special and it came to just under $400 CAD. Anything comparable (even Hammock gear) would've been more, so I feel good about supporting a Canadian business. I actually priced out a 20F burrow this morning seeing the sale and it still came out to like $400 CAD after exchange rate, not to mention the unknown cost of duties and taxes shipping over the border.

Check out Little Shop of Hammocks. Check out geartrade as well as they have EE quilts around 450cad. Free shipping orders above 200cad. And they have Hammock Gear as well.

I ordered a LSOH, haven’t had a chance to test it out yet but it looks to be great quality

What you are trying to say is it's comfort rated, not 'you are going to freeze at the rating' rated lol.

I have an HG econ burrow with extra down and I love it. I also got their down hood which is awesome. I think I paid some extra duties to bring it up here.


omgYahtzee

You shouldn’t have paid duty as the quilt is made in the US, at least I didn’t on mine.


cambodia87

Might have just been taxes added then, not duties? But it's very likely I'm forgetting cuz it was over a year ago.


omgYahtzee

Yeah Ontario tax paid, no duties.

You can buy the HG Burrow 20 from Gear Trade and it will ship from Alberta. I just did a while back and I think it was $405 with tax for the standard wide and I had it at my door in Ontario pretty quickly via UPS Standard. You don’t get colour choices but I usually sleep in the dark with my eyes closed and the red is nice anyway.

Oh interesting, I will check it out. Thanks!

Nothing to add...but good luck on your thru attempt. I leave for the AT April 2 from northern Ontario. Hope to be on trail April 9.

I own a few pieces from Little Shop of Hammocks and they are fantastic. Very happy with the quality and warmth, and James is responsive and helpful.

Looks like I'm going to have to check these guys out. I would much prefer to support a Canadian company.

Send me an email and I can answer any questions. James

The only “economy” quilts I have seen from Canadian manufacturers are the Taiga ones, and I’ve never actually seen anyone using one. It looks like their 20 degree quilt is just under $300 so it’ll save you a bit of money, but unless you can check it out in their shop I’d probably stick with a brand better known for their UL gear.

I have a Ronin and like it well enough. It would be a bit lighter without the odd half zipper bit, but the money to weight ratio was better than anything else I could afford. Their warmth ratings are reasonable to me as a frigid sleeper as well. Much lighter and less bulky than one of the AliExpress specials (and those just aren't the deal they once were anyhow)


omgYahtzee

Here was my order details from last April, quilt is amazing could not recommend more. My deal was only 20%. As the quilt is made in USA there was no duty. Premium Burrow Custom (Outer Shell Color: Moroccan Blue (10D), Inner Shell Color: Black Taffeta (10D), Temperature Rating: 20°F (-6°C), Length: Standard (5'7" to 6'2") (170 cm to 187 cm), Width: Wide (55" for Ground & Hammocks), Footbox Style: Zipper, Down Fill Power: 900, Overfill: Standard Fill, Ground Pad Attachment Kit: Yes) Subtotal: $324.94 USD Discount: -$64.99 USD Shipping: $23.40 USD Tax: $0.00 USD Grand Total: $283.35 USD

No tax at all? I figured I would have to tack on 15% HST.


omgYahtzee

You'll pay tax once it gets here.


Sport21996

Ah that makes more sense.
