    I love the blackbird xlc and I love the customer service

    I ordered the xlc for a last minute trip and again Brandon delivered perfectly and way ahead of time. I sold my wb xlc about a year ago and bought a dream hammock roaming gnome. After using that I missed my xlc and found it to be the only hammock I could sleep in comfortably on my side other than a bridge hammock.

    If your a side sleeper this is your hammock and the great customer service is an added benefit. This time I know better and will not be offloading this baby.

    +1 the xlc is the best I've had. I did just get a Ridge runner and initial thoughts are it's better but I haven't spent the night in it yet.

    +1 Love my XLC and am amazed I can actually side sleep comfortably in a gathered end. The XLC is borderline idiot proof.

    Good to know. I just ordered my XLC and I've been known to have been referred to as an idiot.

    As a side sleeper that tosses and turns some, I may need to try one of these.

    I had a BB, which I really like. Tried out a DreamHammock, which was certainly great, but when the XLC came out I made the jump and never looked back. With the length and footbox, it's the most comfortable gathered end hammock I've ever used. Definitely a great hammock for side sleeping - especially when I want to tuck up my knees extra far. Can't do that as well in my Ridgerunner.

    Love Warbonnet - their hammock lineup is high quality and innovative!

    My XLC came in this week. Loved my regular WBBB, but at 6'4", I thought the XLC would be better. Have only had a quick test hang, but so far it is great.

    Thanks for the advice Breyman. I was thinking about a RR, but now have the XLC on this list as my next.
