Love it! I'm a mosquito magnet

I got this for my birthday, and i'm so excited. I love hanging in my hammock, but i'm a mosquito magnet and couldn't stand being outside with them biting. I didn't even know these existed, but i'm glad they do! It's a good sized tent! I had plenty of room down in the bottom, I read some other reviews that one person would sleep in the hammock, and either make a palette for a dog to lay under, or their partner would sleep under them on a palette. There would be plenty of room to do this! I am pretty short, 5'6", but i think there was enough room for me to stand inside, if not, it was close. The bottom is quite roomy. It's super easy to set up, but one thing i wasn't expecting --- THE GUYLINES THAT HOLD UP THE TOP OF THE TENT ARE NOT INCLUDED! Also, the rain cover isn't included, which i thought it was. I feel like this is slightly expensive for just the mosquito tent alone, and would be better worth the price if the rain cover was included. I would totally sleep in this while camping if i had the rain tent to provide privacy and shelter. It would be so much more comfortable than tent camping! I saw several mosquitoes trying to get in to feast on my blood, but the tent did its job and kept them off of me! I'm going to purchase a thin rope to use as a guyline, possibly just paracord. I'm trying to figure out how to rig some lights to the top of this on the inside. We will probably get one of these for my husband too! My dog enjoyed laying under me and being out in the nice weather. It's not super light, so it may be pretty big for backpacking if you're trying to be SUPER ultra lightweight. It's probably 2-3lbs. Getting this back in the bag is a calculated event. I laid it out flat, and folded it as much as i could, folded each end over so it was as long as the inner bag, and then rolled it as tightly as i could, and i got it to fit on my second adjustment.Happy Adventuring!
