Anyone try a Hammock Bliss No-See-Um No More?

[DaleW]

I ran across a Hammock Bliss No-See-Um No More hammock that looks pretty much like a Grand Trunk Ultralight with an integrated bug screen and 6mm climbing rope for a suspension, for $60. It looks like a good deal on paper--- has anyone tried one?

Yes I have one and so does my wife. I love it. You can sleep with the netting up or flip the hammock and sleep with no netting. They are very comfortable.
You can see a good review on youtube here:

I installed whoopie slings on ours and use tree straps. Very nice sleeping in this hammock. With that said, I must say that this is the first hammock I have owned. I now have a DIY gathered end hammock that I love.

I can't compare this to anything other than the DIY hammock, but I am quite satisfied with my purchase and I would recommend this hammock.

I just ordered one of these yesterday, just wanted to see if was a usable loaner for my son. Will let you know what I think of it when I get it next week. dave

Yes it's nice and wide.

For those who have one, how is the suspension rope attached? Is it just passed through a channel or permanently fixed/sewn in place? If I got one, I would want to use whoopie slings.

Never mind-- I watched Sgt. Rock's video.

I'm new to this whole hammock world and have been searching for the perfect hammock for me. I wanted one that had attached bugnet, reasonably light weight, packs down small and made of soft material. Also wanted a gathered end hammock vs. brigde. I searched HH hammocks but didn't want to spend that much in case I hated it! I went out and bought a ENO Doublenest from local ****'s Sporting Goods over the Father's Day sale and fell in love with first swing. Being in Florida I quickly realized I couldn't deal with the bugs!!! So I went back to researching the perfect hammock. I thought I had found it in the DD Frontline but I am not happy with the pack down size and material it is made of (don't get me wrong the hammock is perfectly made and large enough and the shipping and customer service has been awesome) just not the right fit for me. I have settled in on trying to buy online again and see if I can get it right this time with the Hammock Bliss no-see-um hammock. I like the features it has my only wish is that it had a double layer for my pad but since it is attached bug net I'm hoping my pad won't have too much to slide around or I may use my big agnes pad and sleeping bag which are attached.
Can't wait until it gets here and I can test it out. I have done research online and haven't found much negatives about it. Haven't found too much on the forums here about them (old posts nothing new). Anyone recently get this hammock and have any reports to share. I definitely will be switching out the suspension, already have some gear from DutchWare Gear and WhoopieSlings on its way. Thanks for any help it all can be a little overwhelming at first when one is deciding which way to go with suspension etc.

I've had my No See Um No More for a few years now and I swear by it. I use inverted whoopies, have replaced the little bug net tie outs with an adjustable ridge line and it has seen me through temps from 18* to 98*. Don't let that thin little bugnet fool you though. It ain't fragile. Understand that I am 400+ pounds and sleep soundly in my little green wonder. Once however I overshot the hammock and ended up in the net. I was suspended in the bugnet without hitting the ground. One of the tieouts broke, thus the replacement ridgeline (upgrade). If you don't love it yet, you will.

Thanks Captain Smiley for helping me ease my mind about my choice. I think I will be happy with it based on your comments (and others). Can't wait to get it!! Do you mind sharing what UQ you use and size tarp you use with it. Thanks!
