    Woot.com Hammocks Back Yet Again

    8/11/2013

    If you missed out the first 2 times, here's another opportunity!

    I just got my double a couple days ago from their last sale, so I'm sure a bunch of you are starting to tinker with yours =)

    What is the general consensus on the quality of this hammock?

    i dunno, i think it's pretty good. i spent about 20 minutes in my double today, and then my older son spent the next 4 hours in it. the suspension kinda sucks, but it's easy to pull out and replace with whatever you got.

    i've only spent a maybe 15 mins in the netted one. i'm 6', and i could definitely notice the shorter length, but my 4 year loves it.

    overall, no real issues with quality that i can see.

    My review I filmed a few days ago of Double. My wife has and used the netted one. She liked it:


    Some photos of the netted one, I didn't get around to filming the netted one. But she slept in it Friday night no problems, she hooks the netting up on a single ridge line. It comes with Shock cord for the ridge line. the netting also has 2 built in pockets perfect for glasses, flashlight and iphone. Plus the attached storage bag can be used as a pocket so there are plenty of storage options while sleeping. Some people complain the shock cord is not long enough but it is on ours. :



    Not my video but here is an unpacking of the Bugnet hammock:

    Sorry, not bagging on your rig. I just live my life by the old adage of “you get what you pay for”.
    I hope it serves you well for many years!

    I bought the netted version last time and I feel that for $29.99 shipped to my house it was a good deal. I find it to be ok comfortable but as I am a newbie and never layed in anything else I don't have much to compare it to. I am 5'10" 210 lbs and it seems to work for me. My daughter loves it and I usually have to make her get out of it, she is 10.

    My WBRR and the rest of my goodies from Brandon will be here on Monday, then I will have some kind of comparison.

    It is not a cheap quality hammock. At least the double version isn't. The price tag on it when it comes in mail is $70. It could certainly use a ridge line and suspension upgrade, but at $25 shipped it is hard to beat. Makes a great starter/loaner rig.
