   Slept better than I did on my air mattress.
   Slept good, no bites, easy to put up. Well worth the money. Slept for four nights in the mountains on this hammock.

   It better than expected
   The places I go camping sometimes don’t have trees is the right spot so I got a collapsible stand for my hammock. Just easier that way. I tested it to see how well it would fit and it fits great without having to use the straps.

   Florida favorite!
   This camping hammock now lives in my car along with a rainfly and a couple extra guidelines. Love it, two thumbs way up! It is so lightweight that I can recommend it for backpacking, although I use it for kayak camping and car camping mostly. I’ve used it most frequently at day-use recreation parks, though! Having a cool, bug-free zone to chill out, read a book, or take a nap is a must-have in hot, buggy Florida. The arched canopy and suspension systems work great; I upgraded my carabiners, however, to ones that are graded for climbing/safetyFor camping in Ultra-Buggy conditions: note that some kinds of mosquitos are able to bite you through this nylon fabric, so I always recommend putting down a blanket or air mattress inside the hammock before laying in it for long periods so you don’t wake up with bum-bites, LOL.

   Got to use this for the first time a few weeks ago and it’s great.
   This is a great hammock for solo camping without a tent. It is sturdy and protects you from some of the elements. Put a tarp above it and you are completely secure from whatever the wild throws at you.When I used it I experienced high winds. When I was in the hammock, this was fine. When I was out of the hammock it caught the wind a bit. I added some gear in it and it remedied the problem.

   Great hammock but different than the standard kind
   Ok, I am no stranger to hammocks (I hate tents) and have taken several different kinds camping over the years. Ones with out bug nets, some with integrated bug nets. some that the bug net is separate that covers the entire hammock and many different designs. But this has to be a first (that I’ve had) that used tent poles to hold the bug net up. The problem that you have with most integrated bug nets is that the excess net falls in your face. I HATE that! On one I installed a ridgeline JUST to keep it out of my face, used grommets and all to pass the ridgeline inside. I in the past preferred the kind that the bug net is separate and incases the entire hammock like a shield. The down side to that design is that you have to run ridgelines and guy lines to hold the bug net up. So, enter this hammock. It does not come with any instructions but assembly is straight forward and instructions is not necessary. First thing I noticed is that unlike every other hammock I have ever used, the stuff sack on this hammock IS NOT sewn on in the middle but is completely separate. Infact the hammock was folded in half then wrapped around the tent poles which were in their own little sack. Next thing I did was hang the hammock using the included tree straps and using the Forefinger and Thumb method (30 degrees) to get the perfect hang, I then set to attach the poles. Here is where I ran into problems. Once the poles were in, it stretched the hammock taut and it flipped upside down due to the now top heavy hammock. But this didn’t deter me so I unzipped it and climbed in as I would any other hammock. I now found myself an inch off the ground and feeling like a bent banana. So I then moved each carbineer up a couple loops until it was so tight that I couldn’t move a single carabineer any higher. In any other hammock this is a cardinal sin and a BIG no-no as you want a 30 degree hang, not a 0 degree. Convinced it wouldn’t work, I tried climbed in which was hard to do as now its at eye level. So I then moved the tree straps from head height to torso high. Climbing in was easier and to my surprise I was confrontable, laying strait AND asymmetrical. Even laying on my side was fine. the bug net was stretched out and nothing fell in my face. inside that hammock was soooo roomy! There is even a little pouch to hold a phone or something and a loop from the net to hang something like a headlamp. The downside is once you climb out the hammock flips over again. It wont flip while your in it but when not it does due to the poles making it top heavy AND the hammock being pulled taut. Some guy lines tied off would help keep it upright when not in use but I like to SWING so I wont use guy lines. This also does not come with a rain fly so you will need to get one separate. All in all This is a good hammock and very roomy inside. However it has a different set up method than any other hammock I have ever used and may make someone who is unaware not like this one or not able to set it up correctly. Some instructions in this part would have been helpful.

   The netting makes a huge difference
   This is brilliant! Our last camping trip was to a lake, where our site was on a marsh, and the mosquitoes were incredibly vicious. Without the netting, using a hammock wouldn’t have been at all inviting. This stuffs quite nicely into its sack, making it easy to take with you, and it would work well for sleeping when backpacking.Thank you for reading my review. I hope you found it helpful.
