^^^Agree! Like what's already been stated here a few times, ultimately it comes down to what is the most important to you based on your abilities and finances, which only you can answer that question. If a quilt works for you, there's not doubt about it, a quilt will be much lighter and pack into a much smaller package, based on an apples to apples comparison. If you can afford to purchase a used quilt, and try it out to determine if they work for you, you probably won't regret it. What I mean by this is, this will answer the question as to whether or not you like quilts, and if not, you should be able to resell it for a very minimal loss, if any.I'll tell you that the older I get the more ounces matter and the less the price matters. It's your call on price over weight but an extra pound here and 6 ounces there starts to add up quick and once you set down and look at it all you realize that your carrying an extra 5 + pounds that you don't need to be carrying.
