Review on πŸ• Outdoor Camping Rain Fly Hammock Tarp Cover Tent | Lightweight, Waterproof, RipStop | 10 x 10 FT | Shelter for Travel by Johnathan Delic

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good tarpaulin - good price!

I installed this in my backyard today and I have to say it's a good tarp for the money. Of course there are others that weigh a few grams less, but they all cost twice as much or more! A special feature of the trap I received is that it has 8 guy lines around the perimeter. The description reflects these 8 guy lines, but the picture above shows one at each corner and one might suggest one at each end of the ridgeline. Note, however, that there are 8 of them, so you can choose between a square, diamond, or asymmetrical arrangement. Today I had to tighten the tongues heavily as it was windy and they held up normally all day with no sign of weakening. I'm deducting 1 star because the bag isn't big enough to fit in the trap. You will need to fold (ideally with two people) and roll the bug to put it in the stuff sack. I'm not a fan of wrinkles as it introduces weak points too easily, but I might also experiment with snakeskin to hold this thing up in the near future as it makes it easier to adjust to the wind (like my palatial estate does today is). . Summary - A durable, large hammock cover that does exactly what is advertised for half or more the price of others.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Security
