I bought a DN this past year as something fun for camping. Now the idea of sleeping in a tent is just not the same. I would much rather hang in my ENO. I still need to mod the suspension w/ whoopies but i love it non the less.

A mod def. cuts the weight and whoopies have no stretch. Can't say so much for the slap straps.
i like my eno because i use it for lounging when i stop for lunch on a day hike. they dont have integrated bug nets or other complicated systems, its just nice and simple. when im camping, i add the accessories as necesaary. im more happy with my eno than i would by with a hh or wbbb
I love my eno dn. Swapped out the suspension last year and added a ridge line. I have it dialed in to the point that I can sleep on my side.
Life looks better from a BIAS hammock.
Side, back, stomach… it’s all comfortable with my eno! I’m playing with my ridge line and haven’t quite got it where I like it yet. Not sure weather I’m gonna use it on an everyday basis but I like fiddling with it!Originally Posted by mbcruzin

I haven't felt a need to move past the ENO Double nest. It works fine for me, I modified it for lighter suspension and added a pad pocket.
Why fix what ain't broke?
Same for my son, he loves his and so we stick with them.
I did buy a Kammok when they did the half price thing, but it rarely gets used, It's in the car for a "whenever" hammock. And I picked up a couple of inexpensive Hammaka ones on Ebay to loan to people who want to experience hammocking.

I am getting ready for my first hang next weekend. I have always done traditional tent backpacking. I have been malling over getting a hammock and swiching over for a while but am to cheap to buy one. I came home yesterday and my wife had bought me a ENO singlenest. I haven't hung it at all. I am 6'-2" and about 175 lbs, should I keep it or take it back for a DoubleNest?? I not sure what to do because there is lots of talk about the double and not so much about the single....
Go for the double.
