There are a few post in these hammocks from previous woot deals.
I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

Yeah, a lot of "tall" people have commented on how it's hard to relax in it without feeling cramped. My supervisor was talking about how he wanted one just yesterday afternoon. Maybe I'll get brownie points for pointing out to him that they're up on Woot today. Nice way to start my 4-day working weekend.
I bought the mosquito one a few months ago when it went on sale. I am 5'10" and I don't think anyone any taller would be able to use this comfortably. For me it isn't bad at all, somewhat nice really. It does not compare to my WBRR but that is a no brainer.
With all of that said it fits m 10 year old daughter perfectly and she loves it and has logged some very comfortable sleep in it. My opinion is for $29 shipped to your house it is a no brainer, well worth every penny.

I am jumping on this. At 5'8" and being my first purchase it will be a great base model to only go up from.
I got a couple of the doubles and a couple of the netted ones. The doubles are great hammocks to lounge in. The netted version is short but not uncomfortable for me but I am only 5' 6". I gave a netted one to my nephew and one to my son and they are perfect for them and at the price I'm not too worried if they destroy them. I picked up a couple more of the netted version last nite to have as gifts or loaner hammocks. The first thing I do when I get them is ditch the suspension that comes with it for whoopies. I took off the built in stuff sack on one of the netted hammocks and replaced it with a lightweight stuff sack so now it is 17oz with suspension. That's not bad for a netted hammy.
I picked up a double last time. Put whoopie slings on it first thing. It's very comfortable and my go-to car camping/loaner hammock right now.
Awesome! Thanks for the heads up, will be picking up a double just to have extra.
