PSA: REI Magma 30 quilt $164

[Benneke10]

I know its not ski gear but I've bought and sold hiking gear here before so figured folks may be interested. REI Magma 30 quilt is $164 right now - I follow hiking gear pretty closely and have never seen a high quality quilt this cheap before. If you're not sure if a quilt is right for you this is the perfect opportunity thanks to the REI return policy.

Nice find. Hard to not pull the trigger if you’re on the market for a quilt. I keep wanting one, my bag is super light for the temp but still 33oz. A quilt would be dope for mid summer. 30 degree maybe a bit warm but not for the Rockies. The Econ burrow before the goodies is like 200.00 and this is 164.

Nice PSA, and, having just tried out a quilt, they can be a little iffy for side sleepers and tossey turners. I have a 20 degree and was getting pretty cold in upper 30's low 40's weather. It just became too drafty. YMMV. But great price on that if looking for a light quilt for warm nights.

I've backpacked with this quilt the last couple of years and I love it. I'm a side sleeper and tosser-turner and find it much more comfortable than my traditional bags. I think it's a good value at full price.

My take on quilts for tosser-turners is that they are more comfortable for sleeping, but it's best to upsize on both length/width and temp rating so you're not trying to lock down the draftiness constantly. Quilts for summer are awesome, I think a solid 30 deg comfort is perfect. In shoulder season I think a bag is better.
