I heard to cabelas about once a month and the only one I know of in pa is worthless when it comes to hammocks ....

I've checked the one in Boise and they didn't have any in stock. Looks like you'd have to order from online.

I'm curious also... I was looking to get an inexpensive hammock to keep in the trunk of my car and ran across Kijaro... so, I thought I'd do a quick HF search and see nada except this thread. hmmm... anyone try one? anyone? Beuller... Beuller... Beuller........

I think you hit the nail right on the head. I bought two Equip hammocks from Walmart 2 weeks ago for my boys, so the details are still pretty fresh in my mind.

That "suspension" and hardware photo looks identical to the Equip setup. The knots are even in the same place. The 3 step diagram seems strangely similar to the instructions sewed inside the Equip stuff sack as well.

One difference is the size. My Equips are ~8ft in length, and the Kijaro is 10.5ft.

as far as the hammock itself goes i have a friend with one, if i had one it would have to be the double hammock at 6'6" wide versus the 4'9' single wide. also i don't like the load bearing stitches at the ends. definitely would convert to whoopie sling suspension

I've had a look at all three of these in person. But for the logos/names, the hammocks, load ratings, feel, finish, color, etc., all look identical. I can't 100 percent remember, but I think the specs (width, length) are the same. I could be wrong and never had the three out alongside each other, but I believe this is correct.

What this means is that a Walmart Equip brand is the best bet for the money. At $25, it's less that the hammock at Cabelas.

All three brands are owned by Denova Brands, it appears, from a trademark search.
