Accomplice 850FP 20F 2 Person Quilt

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Quilts are a brilliant way to lighten the loads, and we are incredibly pleased to be suppliers of enlightened equipment, a quilt specialist from the U.S.A.

Enlightened Equipment says: 

With a closed footbox and individual draft control, the Accomplice 2-Person Sleeping Quilt is the perfect quilt for couples looking to lighten their load on the trail. A proprietary draft blocker at the head end keeps warmth inside, and the individual neck and side openings allow each person to adjust for comfort in a wide range of temperatures.

The Accomplice is a sleeping quilt, not a sleeping bag, which means it’s designed to be used with a sleeping pad to provide insulation underneath you, between you and the ground. The Accomplice doesn’t have zippers or built-in hoods, saving weight and space in your pack.

The Accomplice comes with Standard Accomplice Straps.

Our Verdict

The Accomplice is an incredibly versatile and adaptable two-person quilt; lighter than taking two similar rated quilts, the Accomplice is for couples looking to lighten the load.  Both parties share a large and accommodating sown closed-toe box, yet both have individual head openings that can be cinched down or left open depending on each party’s preferred warmth level.

The bag can be used either with two one-person mats or with a double mat; the Accomplice includes a pair of clips that can secure the quilt to either mat set up; this isn’t confining and allows you to toss and turn without twisting the quilt around you. The clips are effective and prevent the quilt from moving too much, so you don’t create yawning gaps for the heat to escape.

The quilt packs down incredibly small, so it takes up very little room in your pack. This 20°F / -6°C Quilt would be fantastic for refuge hopping and camping in the summer months here in the UK, but if you plan on camping in cooler weather, look at the rest of the Enlightened Equipment range.

If you’ve never taken the plunge into quilt camping, but it’s something you have considered, we think you would be hard-pressed to find a better brand than Enlighten Equipment to take the leap finally.
