    Equip Hammock now down to 13.79 at Walmart.com

    I have one of these and replaced the suspension with whoopie slings. I find it comfortable, because of its width, if a little heavy.

    I paid $25 for mine and thought it was a good deal. IMO, this is a better deal than the Woot hammock yesterday.

    Thanks for the heads up.
    Just got mine yesterday (free shipping over $50 which worked out for me). I am new to the World O' Hammock and this is a great way to kick the tires. I'm making my suspension for it today. This looks like a good template for making a tablecloth hammock too (except for the two-tone panels)....but at that price there's not much to lose if you don't like it.
    I am no thread injector expert... but even though the channel is triple stitched, I think it could use some better thread with tighter stitching to rely on a continuous loop through the channel vs. a zip-tie and then larks head around the gathered end.

    Got one of these this week on their ship-to-store option...first set up, sat down in hammock, then laid down while the ropes were creakin' and settlin' in...got up and looked at hammock and it had a 1" 'L' shaped tear in it...not to sure if I want to exchange for a better one (read more $$$) or 'spin the wheel' again. While I'm a 225 lb guy, I was wearing running shorts and t-shirt...nothing to snag on the fabric.

    I got one of these awhile back for my daughter, she loves it to camp in, I just picked up 2 more for the sale price. I made some whoopie slings for it the other day and then spent a couple hours hanging in it the other day with no problems(I'm 245lbs)

    Looks like a cheap way to get my wife to try out hammocking... was going to make her a tablecloth hammock but this is easier
