    Walmart hammock

    Just bought a Walmart blue hammock. First hammock. For only 25$ and everything included. Couldn't pass it up. Pictures forth coming.

    I hung and took a quick nap in mine today. It was my first one too; figured I should by a cheapie first to make certain I won't get seasick before shelling out the $$$ on something else. There have been a couple more threads on them too; might find some good info there.

    Grabbed one today myself and I'm very impressed! Very nice lay -- lots of room. Fabric is pretty heavy duty. It looks like a doggone satin sheet but feels like a heavy sail bag or something. Certainly a good buy since it includes a basic suspension (considering other low-end suspensions start at like $15 themselves). This is gonna be my indoor hammock for a while.

    It was hidden on a rack near all the folding camp/beach chairs and such.

    I have been checking my local wallyworld but they do not have any. Which is probably for the best as my wife says I don't need any more hammocks.

    If your local Walmart doesn't have it you should be able to "Site to Store" it aka order on the internet and pick it up at your store.

    Fell asleep in it. A little windy and 60 degrees here in central MN. Just layed in my sleeping bag. Was super comfy. Before I got into the bag I was pretty surprised at how fast the wind sucked the heat from my back. But I am a very hot sleeper so once in the bag I was just fine. Little colder might mean an under quilt. But I am very happy with this. Now I need another. Lol

    They are decent. Hold a good amount of weight. Just need a different suspension. Only come in blue. Actually found a Traveller Lite in many colors at Academy Sports and Outdoors for a few dollars less but it comes with no suspension at all.
