Bug Net Hammock - Dark Olive

Haven't tried the Hammock as of yet, but unpackaged it, looks like a solid quality item

I picked this up intending it to be my camping hammock, but I've been using it every chance I get. It's so comfortable and the quality gives you a lot of confidence in it. It's a thoughtful design for campers and without sacrificing the comfort of an backyard, afternoon kind of hammock.

I actually love the design of this hammock. The fact that the bug net stores into one of the ends makes it perfect for me. When I'm traveling it is nice to just pull out and not have to deal with the bug net for storage separately. Very comfortable, and the flexibility of the fabric cradles you nicely. It's almost too comfortable, I have a hard time not falling asleep. When I first received the hammock I questioned why the leads at the end were made of only 1/8 polypropylene. It seemed odd to make it an obvious weak point to save a negligible amount of weight. I figured it was engineered fine and didn't worry about it. That was until it came apart on me and dropped me on my head. Had I reviewed it at the time it would have been a lot more scathing. I weigh 200 lbs so well within limits. If the rope had snapped for come undone inside the fabric , the entire Hammack would have been garbage. I tied it back together and can still use it now. Unfortunately, now I can't relax like I used to because I'm paranoid of being dropped on my head again. I don't want to be melodramatic but had I hit my head on a rock I could have died, and I feel that this leaves an unacceptable standard for safety. At the very least, there should be an option to have something more substantial to hang yourself with.

Response from HG:
Hello Rob! Please contact us and we will make this right for you! It sounds like you had a defective continuous loop. Terribly sorry for the issue.

I just finished two nights in this hammock. The integrated bug net is a must for Texas camping. When using this indoors (because doesn't every home office need a few hammock hooks?) the bug net stores away neatly in the integrated mesh bag at the foot end of the hammock.

The spacious double-ended stuff sack included with the hammock makes putting the hammock away a 30 second task. I also found the stuff sack was a great place to store other parts of my shelter/sleep system while the hammock was up--super easy to find those tarp stakes in the stuff sack at the foot of the hammock when I need to retie the tarp in the middle of some surprise sideways rain.

Last, but most importantly, the 11 foot length of the hammock and integrated ridge line really gave me the perfect hang without much effort at all.

If you're graduating from a more-casual store-bought hammocks, this one should be your first purchase. It's built so sturdy it might be the last hammock you need.

Very comfortable, quality construction.

I haven't had a chance to really put it to the test yet, but I did set it up immediately. I gave away a different manufacturer's hammock to get this one, and I'm glad I did. Easy set up with the standard buckle straps, and I really like that I don't have to do anything extra with the bug net. It's a winner.

After being a tent camper all my life, I decided to give hammock camping a try. I bought a HammockGear Zippered Bug Net Hammock after watching several YouTube video reviews. It came right away, and I took it out of a couple of overnight trips. But because I didn't order an underquilt with the hammock, I discovered that it was too cold to sleep in unless I used my inflatable pad, which doesn't really work too well in a hammock. So I have ordered an Incubator underquilt and am anxious to give it another try. But, that said, I can say that the hammock is very comfortable. I immdiately fall asleep once I am stretched out in it. The bug net is exceptionally well done, with zipeprs on both sides to enable entry and exit from either side. I love this hammock. Quality is top notch and I can find nothing critical to say about it. Can't wait for my quilt to arrive so I can take it out again.

Slept in it for two nights at Keaiwa campground on Oahu. Most comfortable spacious hammock I’ve ever slept in. Zippers easy to open and close. Ridge line perfect to hang items from. Stuff sack opens on both ends so you can leave it on the suspension line when deployed. Has a mesh peak bag built in one corner to store items. Looking forward to sleeping in it again soon.

Used it over the weekend. Performed well. Lightweight and packs small for what you get. Like the fact you can push the bug-net out of the way. Ridgeline is good and i dont have to adjust it. Using it next month on a multi day hike

Had a great first night out under the stars this weekend!! My wife found her sweet spot very quickly and was rocking to sleep within minutes! Our order was delayed because of some faulty zippers, and the folks at HG more than made up for it!! Thanks for a great start to hammock camping!!!

The hammockgear hammock is very well planned and thought out. Work the different colored carabiners to designate head verse foot end to the pouch to hold the big net if you pull it back. Very comfortable lay! Perfect size.

I received my hammock about 2 weeks ago and I already have 3 nights in it. Man I love this thing! It’s super comfortable light weight and the internal ridgeLine is awesome makes set up simple and nice every time . Highly recommended!
