Yet another satisfied customer of 2QZQ's zipper mods!
Recently sent them my HH Exped, and I can't believe how professional everything looks! I got the mod #2, which is excellent. Very fast turnaround too... sent it in a couple weeks ago, and it's already here, 4 days before my "requested return by date".
All in all I am very happy, and it is well worth the money for any HH owners. They even repaired a rip in my bugnet for FREE. that's service.

Planing mine soon what side did you have the full zipper installed. Also whats it like to get in and out of with the tie outs staked out.Quote:

and as far as getting in/out with the tie-outs, its no big deal. i mean since the tie-outs are elastic, it's no pain in the butt or anything.
Now I'm leaning to the left side for my full zipper mod don't know why just seems like the lower side of the hammock when you lay in it. I know 2q has statistics but it would be interesting to get some feedback on how others find it and if anyone wishes they had made the other choice?.Quote:

honestly the only reason i opted for the right side, was because i wake up and get out of bed every morning on the right side. just made sense to me.
I have the Left side full zipper too (on both hammocks I have sent them).
It makes more sense to me because when zipped up, the top right-hand side (where the 'shelf' is), is out of the way and clumsy to get at. The PERFECT spot for the rolled-up bug-net to go.
If you have the right-side as the full zip, then either your head will be pressed against the bug-net when it's rolled up, or you will have to sit on and possibly damage the bugnet when you sit down.
Left-side full zip is the way to go IMHO.
With a Mod 2, either right or left full zipper, the unzipped, rolled up bugnet is stored at the lower sections of the hammock...... your head should never touch it. :confused::confused:Quote:

what are you referring to by "shelf"??Quote:

I just received my HH back today with mod #2 (left). Wow !!!! what a sterling job ZQ done. Being from the U.K, I was a little concerned about postage costs but if you want a job done right and all that.......... ! I'm over the moon with it........
Bazza, I have my full zipper on the left,....one of the reasons being that my sleeping bag is zipped on the left.........anything to make life easier....lol
Thanks guys !
That was my primary reason as well but planning to go the top quilt route and I also use my bag as a quilt anyway so it was not the deciding factor.Quote:
