I got the 20F version and I concur with all those who said this doesn't come close to being properly rated. A more accurate rating would be 35F-40F. Wish I hadn't bought this.

bellowthecatI think most people are happy with it or maybe you got a 35F instead of the 20? I slept down to low 30s with my 35F and had no issues whatsoever with just a merino hoodie. My only gripe is that it could be a touch wider but maybe I should work on getting slimmer haha.

CampCatskillThe quilt I received is 21.5 oz and the bag it came with is 0.5 oz so I'm assuming I got the right one.
Some more details:
I always use the quilt with the Klymit Insulated Static V which has an R-value of 4.4. Unless it's packed for a trip it's always hanging freely. I use the straps, I use the collar, and I tighten the foot box. I wear multiple layers on both top and bottom plus a hat and sometimes hood. I'm still typically chilly at 35F. The one time I dared to use this quilt at 25F I added a merino hoodie, fleece, and down jacket with a hood. I was still freezing. I've spent 20 nights out in this quilt. I am not a cold sleeper. I have 2 sleeping bags rated to 20F and I have absolutely no problem sleeping in them right down to 20F. I wish I'd done more research on UL quilts before buying this because there are clearly better products out there. Maybe not for the same money, but at least I'd be getting closer to what I expect.

bellowthecatThat is odd. I believe this quilt was made for Massdrop by Enlightened Equipment which is a very good company. You have probably come across them in your research of other UL quilts.
I also have a Klymit insulated pad but I haven't used it in temperatures like you are. Typically I hammock camp so I use a 30deg underquilt in conjunction with this 35deg quilt and a down beanie.
Maybe you are getting drafts under the sides of the quilt?
