A few people have posted about their new quilts and their first impressions/first couple nights out, and we have one review on the Reader Review board.
Anyone else purchased an Ultra 20 yet? Any comments?

Anyone else purchased an Ultra 20 yet? Any comments?
Somehow there was a box from ProLite Gear sitting on my porch when I got home today! My wife must have ordered it for me as an early Christmas present!
I got tired of not knowing the concensus on the Ultra 20, so I got it.
Like others who have posted, I layed it out and thought… that's it? That's a 20 degree quilt? After letting it sit for an hour or so, I came back to it and it had actually lofted more than I thought it would. (I tried to measure with a ruler, but I just don't see how people get an accurate reading. It looked like it could have been 2.5" in some spots I guess.)
I might spend a couple hours outside in it tonight. It's only 30F right now but hopefully it'll drop soon.
Other thoughts… it is very wide! I am a toothpick, but it still seems nice and roomy – plenty to wear a high-loft jacket and still cinch the straps a ways. I got the size Long (I'm 6'2") and it's long enough to put the entire quilt over my head.
Please keep us posted.
I'm going to post in a previous thread to keep all of the Ultra 20 info in the same place.
