Finally a hammock underquilt you can afford! The OneTigris Underquilt

Review: OneTigris Hammock Underquilt
For years I have considered purchasing an underquilt for my Hennessy hammock camping expeditions but they just seemed so ridiculously priced. I've been using my trusty lightweight Thermarest sleeping pad in my Hennessy for a couple years now and have been quite satisfied. Recently I stumbled upon the OneTigris underquilt as a possible alternative to my Theremarest. Most importantly the OneTigris hammock underquilt is affrodable... needless to say I decided to give it a try.

Add an extension to your bungee cords to release that taughtness. I just bought this same underquilt and will be trying this very suggestion ( always carry extra line while hammock camping)

[@hermit6208]

Thank you for the review and your observation about how it squeezes you in. Whenever I saw the photos online of this product, I always got the same feeling.... it just looks too snug. It wraps around and doesn't seem to be leaving an air pocket underneath your hammock, where you can have a trapped pocket of air. That combined with the issues trying to have a diagonal lay in the hammock gives me pause. Much appreciated.

Thanks for your comment. Glad to hear this cleared things up for you. Have a good New Year's. Cheers.

[@patrick.771]

Thanks a lot! This was the most useful review, especially the part where you explained the "forced" uncomfortable sleeping position!
I guess I have to buy the moonquilt...

[@ninjaridaz4571]

When laying asymmetrical in the hammock, just pull the under quilt over to one side. The under quilt should not be putting any pressure on you.

[@captainreggae99]

You're alive!!!!

[@cgripp256]

They make a double hammock under quilt that would fix that issue.

[@samuelpalmquist2190]

I believe that's the night protector... Onetigris makes one called the twilight trekker, its what's I have, and it gives much more room allowing diagonal lay.

[@JfrancoisRicard]

Would like to know more as I am about to purchase a onetigris hammock + UQ. How is the diagonal lay in the "twilight trekker" model ?

[@samuelpalmquist2190]

@@JfrancoisRicard as long as you're not 6'6" the diagonal lay is just fine in the twilight trekker.

[@JfrancoisRicard]

@@samuelpalmquist2190 Thanks! After looking at tons of reviews, this onetigris hammock + underquilt really look like affordable alternatives to those "higher price" brands, while still keeping decent quality. Will order soon!

[@samuelpalmquist2190]

@@JfrancoisRicard The winter trekker is good down to 23° F I believe and I've taken it down to the teens using in conjuction with a foam sleeping pad. I stayed plenty warm.

[@JfrancoisRicard]

@@samuelpalmquist2190 Thats reassuring! I am mainly planning on using this for a backpacking trip with the girlfriend, this summer. I don't ever expect the temperature to drop below 40-50F.

[@bigjohnmcvicker]

Thank you for the review. Definitely saved me.

[@thriftysurvivor6117]

Great video. By the way, if you roll up your jacket or something and place it under your knees, you can lay in symmetrical position and be comfortable. It's never been a problem for me.

[@koningbolo4700]

I got a down duvet and put in two rows of small 6mm grommets on the foot and head ends, ran a set of paracord lines (with taut line hitches for ajustability) and I dyed it with these washing machine colors in dark brown and boom, a 35 euro under quilt which can stand very cold winter weather...

[@ryanhuntermedia]

This sounds like a great idea. Do you have images or video of it?

[@koningbolo4700]

@@ryanhuntermedia I might have... I shall look...

[@benjaminmorris1424]

How low of a temperature do you think those would be good for? Did you ever get and try out their bigger version?

[@Marc-Vickers]

Agreed. Always lie on the diagonal if you want to lay flat. Great on the knees.

[@BakerBaker1-9]

Thanks for the review sir 👍 -

[@joshreeves9673]

I used the onetigris under quilt last night on my Hennessy, the under quilt seems it's for a youth hammock, really awkward for a-semetrical, but stayed warm

[@pauldrake2170]

glad to see more videos.

[@christophermarkieta4636]

I got the Hennessy Explorer Deluxe Asymmetrical Zip Hammock this summer and I'm looking for an inexpensive underquilt. Please share if you find something that works!

[@offgridwarrior]

Thanks for your comment Chris... See new video for update on the OneTigris DOUBLE underquilt as a viable Winter option for the Hennessy Explorer.

[@AA1PR]

dang I just got this for my HH jungle expedition, but I lie like a banana with my back injury so maybe it wont affect me I hope

[@kayakcobber524]

For the summer it's very nice and cheap. not to tight and it will serve you well

[@offgridwarrior]

Thanks for the comment Kayak... Typically I don't have use for an underquilt during summer but yes it's definitely well priced for what you get, quality on the OneTigris is good.

[@FalconTalk]

I wonder if this video affected the fact that this under quilt is the most highly rated and most bought under quilt on Amazon right now

[@cazsmokinnn]

You need a thermarest mat if you prefer the diagonal lay

[@scottcarter4388]

Hate to say it but I think I would just buy a sleeping bag would be cheaper maybe less hassle setting-up maybe I'm wrong

[@krogkortet]

Well... Maybe you just should give the quilt some more slack in the ends...

[@offgridwarrior]

That's what I thought... And doing so did alleviate some of the tension on the hammock walls but unfortunately the width of the underquilt still forces a BANANA position when weighted. Thanks for your comment krogkortet.

[@squaddie67]

I saw a modification where you attach a loop of webbing to the edge of the quilt and use a mini karabiner to attach that to the side tie-outs for the hammock. That should alleviate the problem.

[@Peppymoke]

I dont know what the price talk is about with underquilts..
when you buy a lightweight down sleeping bag you pay more too than for a synthetic fiber cheap one.
It's the same thing in life always: you get what you pay for.
funfact - the onetigris is a cheap chinese underquilt. you can find it unbranded on aliexpress for about 30$

[@takyc7883]

my only problem with this underquilt is how bulky it packs! anyone got any advice to pack the underquilt down smaller!?

[@DonHavjuan]

1. This isn't down, it's a polyester fill. 2. No-brand version of this on ebay is $30.

[@blakep3682]

He said it was $60 on amazon I believe

[@carolaussie87]

So that's what I'm doing wrong. I find if I curl up I'm more comfy. Heading out camping this weekend. Yes less is more. Cheers

[@611gay5]

You could just modify and stitch it to be asymmetrical as well

[@sabarslax]

Your a minimalist, less is more. Than why the gun?

[@offgridwarrior]

Squirrels... they're vicious out here.

[@battingthreadbeats4624]

Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it. Especially in a bear burrito.

[@stang147stang]

.... less complaints

[@zrbsrbija]

Get a " Double winter model" thats what i have

[@jorgeo1492]

So how much is it damn it?

[@christirogers2305]

He said 60 bucks, but its fuckin junk

[@treeclimbing7798]

Definitely: No dogs Allowed, my two 92lb girls wouldn’t like me. grrrrr

[@justsayin7704]

Wait! You bought a regular underquilt to use with an asym hammock, you're complaining how they don't work together, but you're wearing your tach vest with your gun in your chest rig?! Hmm.

[@BooLee01]

Well Hell. You titled the video as if you were going to tell us about a great product. Then you proceeded to tell us how bad it sucks.

[@palssth]

Why dont u have a Glock?😁

[@offgridwarrior]

Well palssth... I'd love to comment but then I'd get the entire Glock fanboy club trolling me. The best firearm is the one that puts the rounds where you want them. That's why ;-) All the best to you.
