I like the features of both the Claytor jungle hammock and the DD Travel hammock. The price is comparable and the differences seem pretty small.
DD hammock: Has the double zip and velcro to hold the double layer closed. Looks to be a little shorter but also a little wider. I'm 5' 11", so this is probably a plus as I figure the width would give a more diagonal lay.
Claytor JH: Comes with a tarp and is in cool camo! But, for only 7 dollars more, I can get the 3m x 3m DD tarp with the hammock which looks like it can be setup in multiple ways. I've read that the extra length makes for a very comfortable lay, but again I'm not sure if I need the slight difference. According to the specs from each web page, it looks like the Claytor may weigh a little less than the DD, but they are both heavy so not sure if that would make much difference.
So, I'd like to hear from any that have tried both. I'm leaning towards the DD, but I'd like to hear if there are nuances that aren't apparent from the web page descriptions and good reviews for both here on HF. Any opinions would be well appreciated!
