Ok "HANGERS" I am so new to this community that I don't even have a hammock yet. So I come to you all on the HF to help me find the best bang for the buck.
I would like to get a one stop shop for my hammock purchase. So the hammock, fly, net, and attachments from one company.
Or piece it together from other companies. Either way is cool. Hope I get some suggestions from HF family.

Best advice for an all in one set up is from hennessyhammocks.com I own two of tom's hammocks the expedition and the deep jungle love both of them. Best advice when purchasing is to remember you can't order a hammock to long. The shorter hammocks tend to make you feel closed in.
hi Scout,
I have tried several and my favorite by far is the Warbonnet Black Bird with adjustable webbing suspension. It's got a bug net but no rain fly. Rain Flies, Underquilt etc. are all available through the Warbonnet site. Have fun! skyclad

I had an eno and did not care for the bug netting at all, so I returned it and ordered the Blackbird. It just came in today, but from the testing I can tell it was the right choice. From the USPS box to hanging was about 2 min, it was sturdy, and comfortable.

Can't go wrong with Warbonnet. You can get a Blackbird hammock, a tarp, an underquilt, and a top quilt all from the same source.
It is one option but Brandon is a highly recommended vendor who is a member here. It may be pricey for just starting out but its top quality stuff and would serve you well.

I started witha grand trunk ultralight.....
The blackbird really is a great hammock. Also, Brandon there will help you out personally with any questions you may have. The service there is superb.

BlackBird......need i say more
It puts the Underquilt on it's hammock ... It does this whenever it gets cold
I have a Hennessy Explorer Deluxe with the optional Hex Fly(bigger tarp). It's my first hammock, but I don't see any reason to get a different one aside from having money to blow to try another one.

Been happy with all the gear i've bought ,from "warbonnet" and the "jacks r better" and OES but you could do a one stop shop at warbonnet and be very happy.
