Not only that, but they have very similar listed weights, dimensions, and weight ratings. The different vendors do offer different colors and suspension options, though. Quite curious indeed.

I don't know that it's a bad thing, though. I've got an ENO and I think it's a great hammock.

Ahhh, but for $15.99 you can order 2 biners and 2 lengths of rope to go with your TrekLight hammock.

Isn't the eno style just a rectangle with a channel at the ends?
Like the jungle hammocks?
If that's the case I think a DIY at 60" wide and 11' long would be pretty easy to make......

I haven't taken mine apart, but I suspect that they are a tapered cut. The ends are cinched and there is not any excessive bunching of material like what I saw when I did a DIY with cinching. Just a guess.

Actually its going to cost more than that for the 4 descender rings - shipping cost to a PO box was higher than it should have been IMO ($9+ for Priority Mail).

BTW the only reason I ordered the Trek Light hammock instead of the ENO was ENO would not ship to a PO box and TL would.

I dunno, $9 for priority mail is about the norm. What really hurts my feelings is when I order 'stuff' that doesn't weigh more than 2lbs. total and the shipping is more expensive than my order. Makes me want to order more 'stuff' just so the shipping doesn't seem as bad.

It's a conspiracy!

yeah, just like the hot dog maker putting 8 in a pack & the bun maker putting only 6 buns in a pack so you have to buy two packs of buns

meanwhile mr bun maker is out sailing in his catamaran! GERRRR

but just in case anyone doesn't know, i'm just having fun
