Eagles Nest Outfitters DoubleNest Hammock Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)UPDATE:I ended up purchase the Grand Trunk ultralight single hammocks for my two sons, so was able to actually compare the ENO with the Grand Trunk brands.

The ENO is definitely a thicker material - parachute nylon - while the Grand Trunk hammock are made a very thin nylon material.But for a hot/humid climate like Texas, the Grand Trunk hammocks outperformed the ENO hammock this weekend (May) while camping. The GT hammocks allowed the breeze to circulate, and actually keeps you quite a bit cooler.I think the ENO hammock will be better in the cooler times of the year, but for the summer - and for this price - the GT is a winner.

Also, if you are planning to purchase the "Slap Straps Pro" as I previously recommended - be wary that the tag states that they are for a weight max. of 200 lbs and does not tell whether this is per strap, or for the two straps combined (although the ENO hammock is rated for 400 lbs).If I had noticed this before I purchased, I would have contacted the manufacturer for clarification.

I debated between this and the Grand Trunk Double Hammock that was about $40 compared to ENO at $58.The ENO hammock has very good quality caribiners, unlike a lot of hammocks which have S-hooks (although I am sure you could purchase your own caribiners or higher quality S-hooks).Also, the ENO hammock is supposed to be able to hold up to 400 lbs, compared to most other hammocks which state 300 lbs.The hammock appears very durable and strong, and we have actually had it in the rain, and it dries very quickly.

The only Cons I saw compared to the GT hammock is that the ENO hammocks only carry a two year warranty, compared to GT's 10 year warranty.However, the ENO hammock quality appears superior.Also, note that the double hammock is very wide compared to a single hammock, so it takes a little bit of getting used to all the room you have :)(the extra material can actually "cover" you like a light blanket).

If you camp a lot and can spring for the Eagle's Nest Outfitters "slap straps pro" which are around $20-$25 - you won't regret it.They make putting this hammock up super-easy and super-fast.They are thin, lightweight, but super strong.They are also easier on tree-bark compared to plain rope.On that note, this hammock DOES NOT HAVE ROPE ATTACHED.So make sure you have some on hand, or buy the "slap straps".

Product Description:
ENO's DoubleNest hammock makes you want to snuggle. With two-feet of extra width than the SingleNest, the DoubleNest allows room for one, two, three, or however you decide to pack 400lbs. The DoubleNest seats more than one person comfortably and is essential for family adventures. The DoubleNest still packs down to the size of a grapefruit, so there is no excuse to be without your ENO hammock.

Hennessy Hammock Expedition Asym Hamk Asym Shape Hammock/tent/chair/lounger Combo Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)You cannot beat the convenience and simplicity that this hammock provides to any camping situation.

Pros:
Since you are off the ground you never have to worry about level terrain or water drainage.
Best sleep I have ever experienced in the wilderness. If you sleep on the diagonal you can lay flat. I am also a side sleeper and it felt comfortable to lay sideways.
You can unhook one of the outside lines and sit/lay on the hammock like a lounge chair. Perfect if you are preparing a meal on your camp stove.
The entrance is ingenious and stays shut even if you move around alot.
The netting does its job and is also convenient since it gives you a 360 view around you. Just in case you need to look around for whats rustling around in the bushes.

Ultralight. A few ounces over 2 lbs. Packs smaller than any tent I have used. Especially with the additions of snakeskins. The hammock and be setup in under a minute and taken down within 30 seconds after getting use to it.Cons:The straps provided (tree huggers) tend to run a little small, making it hard to wrap them firmly around the tree. It can easily be remedied with a quick trip to the hardware store and purchasing some longer cargo straps for a few bucks.

The instructions on how to tie the hammock up could be a little clearer. I figured it out after a couple of tries but I felt that it wasnt the most efficient way to secure the hammock.One simple solution is attaching a carabiner through the tree huggers and using a prussik knot to fasten it tight.

If there are no trees in site you can always use hiking sticks in a vain attempt to hang. However the hammock doubles as a decent bivy.Amazing product. Extremely well built. I will never sleep on the ground again.
