Best 3-season quilt or sleeping bag for UK (£200–£300)

Hi all,

Currently looking to upgrade my sleeping bag for wild camping. I’m about 5’5 and using a Sea to Summit Pursuit Plus mat (R ~4.2).

I’ve been looking at the Neve Gear Waratah -2 quilt which seems ideal, but unsure how much the import fees will be.

I've also looked at alternatives like the Otimos UL850 quilt, but there’s not loads of long-term reviews out there so I’m unsure how it compares.

At this point I’m open to either a quilt or a sleeping bag. main priority is comfort and weight.

A few questions:

  • Is the Waratah still worth it with the import fees? (how much will the import fees be?)
  • Is a -2°C quilt enough for typical UK conditions, or would you go warmer?
  • Any strong UK/EU alternatives I should be looking at in this price range?
  • For UK use, do you prefer quilts or sleeping bags for comfort?

Appreciate any advice :)
