Enlightened Equipment Revelation vs Hammock Gear Economy Burrow 20°
Which should you buy? Here's the honest call, pulled from our full The Best Camping Quilts: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) comparison.
The Enlightened Equipment Revelation is the pick because you build it around your own body, climate, and weight budget, and it delivers the best warmth-to-weight of the group. The Hammock Gear Economy Burrow gets you almost all of that feature set for meaningfully less by swapping goose down for duck down.
Enlightened Equipment Revelation
Buy itThe customizable thru-hiker default: dial in temperature, width, and fill, then trust it for years.
- Built to order: choose temperature rating, length, width, and 850 or 950 fill power so it fits your body and your coldest trips
- Class-leading warmth-to-weight; the 20°F version is genuinely light for how warm it is
- Continuous vertical baffles let you shift down where you need it, and the footbox zips fully open as a summer blanket
- Reviewers note it can draft for restless side-sleepers unless you add the optional draft collar and keep the pad straps cinched
- The published temperature is a limit, not a comfort number, so order it 10–20°F below your real overnight lows
Hammock Gear Economy Burrow 20°
Buy itNearly the whole boutique-quilt experience for a lot less, using duck down instead of goose.
- Full-featured cottage quilt (snap-and-cinch neck, sewn or zippered footbox, pad straps) at the lowest price in this group
- Independent testing and owner reports rate it warm and packable for genuine three-season use
- Still customizable for length, width, and footbox style without paying goose-down money
- Uses 850-fill duck down, so it packs slightly bigger and heavier than goose-down rivals at the same rating
- Like most quilts, the 20°F rating runs optimistic; treat it as a warm-side-of-three-season number
