We use our camping hammocks a lot. We have a few because the whole family enjoys laying in them. It is definitely a single person hammock. My kids have been using it for a couple days now and its holding up great. The quality seems great especially for the price. Our other hammocks cost much more so I was happy with price. This hammock does come with some basic straps to hang the hammock with but they are not as easy to use as some other ones we have. Overall we are very happy with the hammock.
I hit the ground at 1am. Lol you definitely need to buy better straps. These don't work.
Got what I payed for I like the net but the short ropes with no length option made me have to buy a strap. The fabric seems thin time will tell how it holds up. The design is good .
It's been on around 10 weekend trips with me this year and I've never been more comfortable in the wilderness. This is my first camping hammock as I've always tent camped. I have to say I'm glad I made the switch to hammocks and this very hammock will be the reason for it. Although I did upgrade the straps just to make setup a little bit simpler. The bug net is a little thin so be careful during setup or you risk ripping the net when you enter the hammock. But with a little practice you can get setup down to an art form. Overall I would suggest the hammock to anyone wanting to enter the world of hammock camping and doesn't want to break the bank
I am 266 lbs and it holds me great. I was attacked by a raccoon the first time I slept in it but survived. Will make it a little higher off the ground next time.
this thing is amazing. I am a large guy and it accommodates me with extra space. sets up in a couple minutes esp. with tree straps. add a waterproof tarp and you are truly good to go.
I do a lot of "bivouac" camping (courtesy of the Army) and dont usually have space to pack any sort of tentage other than a poncho so I thought I would give this a try seeing as how I've had a lot of back problems over the past few years. I tried it out a couple weeks back for the first time during a field exercise in a heavily wooded area surrounded by water. The mosquitos were out with a vengance so it was nice to be able to jump in this at night and not have to worry about them. Setup was easy and thanks to the other reviews I knew not to tie the net off too high so it didn't tear. I ended up connecting the net strings to bungee cords to give them a little flex. I would definitely recommend this hammock to anyone who does a lot of backpacking. It tears down and packs away into the connected bag very easily (unlike any tent I have ever owned).
Only used once, but so far it was great. It goes up very fast and easy - the knot system is clever and simple. Seemed quite durable and held up well. I am not sure about the breathability because I was camping on a very still and humid night in the tropics. I don't see this thing ripping or breaking at all. We even slept with two people in one at one point, probably around 280 lbs. It was actually really comfortable for two...more comfortable than alone, actually, but I personally can never really get comfortable in any hammock, due to lower back issues. It does seem a little bit bulky for backpacking, but I am taking mine on a month long trip. Overall, I recommend this one, definitely.
Goes up fast, comfortable, light, and compact. Just get a rain fly (Nylon tarp) and you are good to go.
I bought this hammock for a friend who really liked the hammock I take backpacking. He loves it. Had no problems with the size or weight. I did read reviews before purchasing and told him to be careful to leave some slack in the Mosquito Net to insure he did not rip the loops designed to keep the netting off your face. He took it out on our two night backpacking trip and it held up just as good as my brand name hammock.
I like my hammock. Small in stature and build, I find this hammock most comfortable. Haven't used it in a camping situation yet, but do hang it between trees in the yard and enjoy the cool fall weather. I don't have a rain fly yet, but that is coming, and will just protect me from wind and rain. The way it is right now, it suits me just fine, and I don't ited so long to order it. If you are considering getting one, quit reading and order it, You won't regret it.
I was considering buying one of those expensive ones and decided that I would try out one that wasn't 400 bucks instead, set it up layed in it watched the mosquitoes try to come in, great lightweight product, don't waste your money one something that is essentially simple. The carabiners are steel and thus a bit heavy so I will switch them out, other than that get yourself a rain fly and enjoy a comfortable camping experience swaying in the air!
I own a few hammocks, but, I must say, this hammock is GREAT!!! The only change I would make to it, is the zippers. I would use aluminum zippers instead if plastic. don't worry, it's still a great investment and you'll love it... buy, two or three. you'll be glad you did...
the jungle hammock is a great way to camp it is a well made product easy to set up and take down
Great camping hammock and it keeps the "skeeters" at bay. I upgraded mine with some heavy duty hammock straps, as the 550 cord, while it worked, was not as user friendly as regular heavy duty hammock straps. Very good product for the price though.
I love the netting that zips around you to keep the bugs away. The hammock is comfortable and sturdy.
Excellent product! Just as described. I have used it three times now for camping and enjoyed it every time. Plan on ordering more for the fam
Bought it for my 18yr.old grandson for his birthday....he loves it!! He's a big guy and he has plenty of room in it and it's sturdy and very easy to put back in the pouch!!
I'm a big boy (290+) and it held me easily for the two nights I've used it. It was very easy to assemble and extremely comfortable.
Great product over all, but the ropes it came with weren't good and they were white and not green. yet the hammock itself is very light and durable and the net is also a very nice touch, payed in it the whole day I got it and seems to hold up fine. I'd recommend getting new ropes for it though.
