Bottom line: vastly more comfortable than a mummy bag.

Pros:

Great deal when purchased during the two for one sale; functions perfectly and easily with a hammock as an under- or top-quilt with the included suspension cords; snaps up with a second quilt to make an even warmer blanket; the fabric is veeery comfortable; and does it all with vegan synthetic insulation, which was a requirement for me.

Cons:

I had a snap fall off before making it out camping, which can happen (customer service was very helpful and promptly sent out a replacement snap which I will have to take somewhere to have installed by someone with the necessary tools, which is an inconvenience and an added expense); synthetic insulation is heavier and bulkier than down (which is a trade off I was aware of and accepted for ethical and financial reasons); I bought the expander to allow the quilt to function as a sleeping bag, but I found it to be a tight and awkward retrofit (the quilt would still need to be a lot wider to function comfortably as a sleeping bag when folded in half lengthwise and snapped up with the expander, and the expander is itself relatively bulky); the accompanying compression sack has a soft canvas lip that isn't quite rigid enough to not come undone.

Bottom line: if you are down averse (as I am, for both ethical and financial reasons), this is a very functional piece of equipment at a great price (when purchased during the two for one sale). The many snaps are convenient, but are also that many more components that can (and, in my case, did) fail. For that reason, I felt four out of five stars was appropriate. On the upside, one snap failing won't significantly decrease the functionality of the otherwise great quilt).

I really like the puffle. I’ve only used it at home so far and it has been keeping me warm in the chilly nights. I can def see this helping me as a sleeping bag in my upcoming camping trip to replace the sleeping bag I have. Will prob consider purchasing another one to make it a big blanket at home for the winter. Thanks!

I’m writing this review as I’m snuggled into my 20 degree down Puffle quilt while fall hiking in the San Juan Mountains. I’ve used it on several backpacking trips now and I absolutely love it. It kept me warm in cold damp weather. It takes up much less space in my pack than my sleeping bag and cuts down on my pack weight! The first night I used it, I woke up with condensation in my tent that had dripped down onto my quilt overnight. I was worried it would soak the down, but it didn’t even penetrate the water resistant material! When the sun came out, it completely dried in a very short time. This will always be my go to quilt for backpacking! Bonus - when my husband hikes with me, he brings his Puffle and we connect them to make one big sleeping bag so we can cuddle. We love it!

So I've enjoyed many of your products for a few years (NINOX hammock/fly, Inferno underquilt, Del Sur coats, trekking poles) but why oh why did I wait so long to purchase a Puffle? It works so well to compliment an underquilt and is as warm or cool as you want it to be. A few snaps and I've got a snug footbed while the rest works so easily versus a bag. My warmer weather sleeping bags may be relegated to the "probably never use again" bin!
