G'day Andrew,

They've been designed to fit over the narrower tapered style mats, that are around 55cm at their widest point. The straps are adjustable in length, so you could probably make it work, but it's hard to give it a try as we don't have that particular mat to try it with.

G'day Charlotte,

Either of the Ether Light Womens specific mat options would be the best choice.
The Extreme has the higher R-Value rating of the two.
If you need any further help with selecting the best mat option, please give us a buzz on 1300 914 007.

G'day Joyce,

Yes, I can confirm our stock is the newest model with the 850 loft down. The loft is different from the weight, there is 500g of RDS 850 Loft Premium Goose ULTRA-DRY Down™ in this model.

G'day Geoff,

The compression sack for the Ember Eb3 quilt is made from PU Coated Nylon, it's not waterproof, but its material is water resistant.

G'day Heather,

AS the Ember Eb3 has a sewn in footbox you'll only connect the top sections using the press studs on the sides of the quilt. Each person will have their own footbox to keep your feet toasty warm.

G'day P,

That's right, the sewn-in foot box isn't able to be opened up, this helps to retain heat and reduce weight and bulk. The foot box has been designed to slip over a tapered mat, or if used on top a mat, the recommendation is that you'd keep your feet in the foot box, and up the lower snap connectors that are about knee height to all extra ventilation if needed.

G'day A,

You can find all of the return information on our returns page, however as long as all of the tags remain attached, the item hasn't been used and is in re-saleable condition it should qualify for a return.

G'day Martha,

The Ember Eb3 has a sewn in footbox, with no zippers on the bag at all. The current model EB3 quilt - Regular weighs 725g and has a 500g fill weight. Sea to Summit made a few changes to their range about 18 months ago.

G'day James,

The EB3 paired with an Ultralight Insulated Sleeping Mat should keep you warm and toasty in most Australian Winter conditions. You could for the EB2, however, you might find yourself cold if you're regularly camped out in winter. I'd personally go for the EB3 as you can always stick your feet out to cool yourself down if you're a little too warm.

G'day Mike,

I've given the experts at Sea to Summit a buzz and double-checked for you. The Ember Quilts are really designed to pair with the tapered style mats. You can use them on a rectangular pad but the bag will just sit on top of the mat, rather than with the mat tucked into it.

G'day Annette,

At this stage, I've only got anecdotal feedback to go on as we don't have any written reports, or reviews online. I've spoken to maybe one or two customers and so far the reports are good and that the new lighter weight fabric doesn't have durability issues.

G'day Annette,

All of the baffles on the Ember Eb3 are box baffles.

G'day Sam,

Great question! Unlike the 2018 version the current Ember Quilt opens out completely flat.  When wrapping around your mat, the foot cinches shut with a draw chord, and the back partially closes with press studs and straps.  Hope that helps, cheers.

G'day Patti,

The Ember EB3 Quilt should be ok for the Overland Track in spring or autumn. We'd recommend pairing it with a well-insulated mat, the Sea to Summit insulated airsprung mat range are great. The Ether Light XT Insulated and Comfort Light Insulated mats popular options.   

G'day Jo,

This is a brand new model Ember Eb3 Quilt so it's hard to give advice based on experience as we've not actually seen these in the flesh yet. We haven't heard any issues with the previous models, so we'd dare say there shouldn't be any issues unless there is something abrasive in the tent. My best suggestion would be to make sure you keep the tent clear of sand or dirt which cause abrasion.

G'day Matt,

There is a drawcord on the top of the Ember Eb3 Quilt so you can cinch it up around the neck. As the quilt wraps around your mat the amount you can cinch it in will be dependent on your mat and shoulder width too.
