    Cool Any Opinions on Hammock Bliss Hammocks?

    Hello,

    I'm to old and fat to sleep on the ground anymore and I'm converting to hammocks when I backpack. I'm looking at a Hammock Bliss hammock. Does anyone have any experience with this particular brand?

    Thanks,
    Babelfish5

    Yep, got a hammockbliss double and the bugnet cocoon. My wife uses it and she's comfy.

    I have a hammock bliss with noseeum attatched mosquito net. It unzips on one side. The great thing about it is if you don't want to use the bugnet you just flip it over. I'm 6ft 250 and it is very spacious. Material is nice and sturdy. I would like to get something a bit more compact for backpacking. I got mine for 47 bucks on Amazon.com. Thats it in my profile pic.

    Been using a hammock bliss single, no net for four years now, works fine. Use a camo mesh net over the ridge line to keep out the little buggy critters.

    I started off using a double Hammock Bliss for about 3 years and have many good outings in it. Recently converted to a WBBB but will usse my HB for summer trips when I want to go UL. Hammock Bliss served me well as I too am 6' and about 245 lbs. No complaints here.

    Welcome to the world of hanging in trees!

    Too fat here too and not talking about age. I have a Hammock Bliss double I love for lounging around in the back yard or at a campsite. For camping though, I prefer the Hennessey Explorer Ultralight or Warbonnet Blackbird.
