You'll not regret getting a DreamHammock. I'm looking at getting a Sparrow as part of my journey towards lighter hiking. My double-layer Danger Bird has been fantastic for the last 6 years or so. I find the overcover to be really nice for adding a bit of extra warmth. If you're worried about condensation, there are a number of
extra noseeum vents in different styles you can have added.
I'm tossing up between the 1.6oz HyperD and the 1.2oz MTN. Here's what Randy from DreamHammock had to say when I asked his opinion between the two:
"I think the 1.2oz MTN is a better fabric. It's woven with a nylon 6.6 yarn that gives it something like 30% more strength. I have a max comfort rating of 260lbs on this fabric, but anything under 225 or so and you'd have a decently firm and supportive lay. It's also got a hybrid ripstop pattern. That is a square grid over a diamond grid. I think this adds to the diagonal stability of this stuff."
That gives me confidence for going with the MTN and saving the small bit of extra weight.
