Cali Pro Gear Double Den Camping Hammock With 2 Free Bonus Adjustable Tree Friendly Nylon Straps and Steel Carabiners - Ultralight Portable Compact Parachute Nylon

Just hung in this hammock for two hours and already am a big fan. I am used to Grand Trunk and ENO hammocks and it seems like the quality is just the same as top name-brand nylon hammocks. I am 5'10, 160 lbs and this fits both me and my wife (5'6, 130 lbs) very nicely if we lay at an angle and not the banana shape.In terms of build quality, the seams are triple stitched and the nylon easily holds two people. The hammock straps are 1 inch wide and the same type of material as a seatbelt. The straps don't stretch at all with the weight, but the thin rope looped through the hammock (that attaches to the carabiner) does stretch depending on how much weight you put in it. The straps are also triple stitched and 9 ft long with 12 loops to adjust the length depending on the base to which you are attaching the hammock. I can easily fit it around the biggest tree in my yard, but the straps were gentle enough to not leave divots in the corners of my wood deck (ropes will rub divots in the edges of wood).My only complaint is that the carabiners are a bit heavy. They come in at 2.2 oz per carabiner and the edges on the clasp are a little sharp, which might cause a snag if you aren't careful. These however, are very easily replaced for a couple dollars and do not affect the performance of the hammock. Altogether, the hammock (with straps and carabiners) weighs 1.97lbs (898 grams, 31.67 oz), which is very doable for solo backpacking if you are looking to avoid a heavy tent. The hammock is wide enough that a solo hiker can easily find a good diagonal angle to get the right sleep position. I would guess that a 6ft+ person would have no trouble at all fitting in it.My favorite aspect of this hammock is the compression strap that goes all the way around the hammock pocket (attached to the side of the hammock) so it fits into itself. the compression strap (made of the same materials as the hammock straps) cuts the size of the bag by a little less than 1/2 the size.In short, if you are outdoorsy and are looking for a great place to rest, you will really enjoy this hammock. Because of its compressibility, it is replacing my GT hammock in my hiking pack.

This is my second hammock so in many ways this will be a comparison of the two. This particular hammock in a single layer of fabric which allows it to pack into a much smaller, light bag than my other double layer hammock. Even with it only being one layer, it still feels strong and easily holds my 6 foot, 250 pound body. The straps are plenty long. Each side of the "loops" is the same length, so they tend to stay closed with makes hooking it up a bit more difficult than other types of straps. The straps are also lighter weight than my other hammock, but again they seem to be holding up fine to my usage. This hammock seems to be well built and does its job nicely. I didn't spot any issues with the seems etc. Everything looks good.fyi, I was given a discount to ensure I wrote a review. I hope it has been helpful and I would be happy to answer any questions.

So I haven't yet been camping overnight but I did get a chance to set this up. I was very pleased to find this was durable and had triple stitched seams. The color is nice and bright. It is lightweight, straps and carabiners are included. I had no problem with setup and it fit two of us comfortably for relaxing. I don't think I'd want to sleep two of us in it overnight or anything but for a little snuggle or nap it is fine. It held our weight without problems. What I was most pleased about was that when I went to put it back into the attached stuff sack it fit in there easily. I dread trying to get things that come compacted back in and someone had the foresight to make the bag large enough to fit the bag, straps and biners back in with out a struggle. I will definitely try hammock sleeping on my next outing.
