Do not think so. Just buy it!

I have an Owl Wise hammock and I love the quality so I bought an Owl Wise rain cover. I couldn't be happier. I set up the hammock and the rain came down in about 20 minutes with no problems. The rain fly comes with support lines already attached to the tarp which was a nice touch. Very easy to put on. After I set everything up, it poured for about an hour and left me completely dry. I even used my trekking poles to keep one side of the fly open for airflow. I firmly believe in this 5 starโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Mostly ok but...

Not at all what we ordered. Shown in photos

We ordered and received our package in April, assumed it was the right item and put it aside until our son went off to find supplies for his summer camp. We sent him a "hammock tarp" expecting him to be able to camp with it and when he installed it he informed us it was wrong. Not only was it not shaped like the preview tarp we ordered, it also didn't cover what it needed. Attached are photos of what we received, which is obviously *not* the tarp in the product image, but perhaps a duvet coverโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Weight

Ideal for hikers, campers or anyone ready to go

Easily keeps out rain and is very easy to install. I can't ask for much more. Seems well done, but if I run into any problems in the future I'll update. I set it up the way I like it and left my prusik knots on the crest to make the set up much quicker because in the rain every second counts. After two minutes you can get wet. This pole, combined with a good hammock, has insect netting and works as a quick shelter with less weight than most tents and poles. Works great in warm weather. Or itโ€ฆ

  • Very impressive

Super easy setup! best tarp for tents

I have just used this rain cover for the first time. It didn't rain during the night, but a storm blew up during the day and everything stayed nice and dry under the tarpaulin. It's important to center it properly, and if it's going to rain I wouldn't set the margins too wide on the sides. Keep it narrower in case it rains on the side. The stakes are quite strong, although my second camp had very hard ground on which I bent two stakes. In such cases, a small hammer can help. I find it a littleโ€ฆ

Pros
  • endurance test results
Cons
  • discontinued model

Manufacturer uses sizes other than stated

The 11 x 9 foot tarp indicator says I received the measured 10 feet 7 inches at the spine line. The width was perfect, but the ridge line wasn't enough to keep out the wet weather for my 11 foot hammock with ruffled ends. .Also the stitched seams didn't match the reviews I read.It looked like someone was late for dinner and only drove their car briefly.The weight was correct but this tarp was as advertised and 11" long feet along the ridge line I didn't. I failed the wet weather test so I canโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hard wearing finish
Cons
  • Frequency

Works great until you have to pack it up again.

I have a lot of Wise Owl stuff: two hammocks, two pillows, a mosquito net and this stupid thing. High quality material, easy to install and has withstood the constant sea gusts in Nova Scotia for three weeks. In fact, thanks to helpful YouTube videos from Wise Owl, it was pretty easy to set up. My problem is they expect you to be able to roll, fold or slide this thing (with 6 x 20ft lines back into a canned ham sized bag. I'd love to watch a YouTube video on that. I was able to In the Bag fitsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Nothing

Fiction! Tent tarpaulin

This rain tarpaulin is amazing. At the last minute, I was preparing to go camping with about 40 other men from my church, and I knew it was going to rain. Although my hammock is from a different company, when I stumbled across Wise Owl Outfitters I was very impressed with the prices and cheaper accessories. I bought a rain tarpaulin just in time. It worked FANTASTIC! The experience of lying in a hammock under a very open raincoat was an amazing experience. I was completely dry, as was theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Pleasing
Cons
  • There are some nuances

The large tarp is a minor annoyance.

I purchased this tarp as part of the Wise Owl hammock system and was not disappointed. It appears to be good value for money with some really good features for the money. Pros - Excellent stitching and edge stitching. Seems very strong. Water resistance is excellent. I liked the rope adjusters, ropes and the excellent Y-shaped pegs. The orange rope on the stakes is pleasant to the touch. Minus - this is not the lightest tarp, but for the money it's not a minus. The main thing for me is that Iโ€ฆ
