Review on Portable Double Camping Hammock With Mosquito Net And Straps - Ideal For Outdoor Hiking, Survival And Travel - Sunyear Hammock For 2 People by Paul Sanchez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good for one big person

I bought this hoping I could use it to camp with my wife, and sleep in one hammock. I am 6'1 212 she's like 5'4 190. This is the largest hammock they had, we were able to lay in it togeather, in a head on the shoulder snuggle position. But a little crammed togeather and there isn't going to be any moving around or changing positions. You can get into that position and you're staying there till morning. Which is going to start hurting about 2am lol.The hammock itself is good. Held us both fine. East to put up, the hammock is, the rain fly is another story. It's unnessisarily complicated. I just cut the strings and tied one to each corner. The rain fly is really big though so that's great. Rain Flys for these things are always bare minimum. The bug net works as it should, it's not the best design because it doesn't spread out much. But it's not like you need a square net room above you while you sleep. Aparently someone said put some sticks up there to hold them apart. That's rediculous. But it keeps the bugs outAs you can see in my photos it's a giant hammock. For a real big person it might be perfect. For me at 6'1 it's too big. The walls on both side of me are tall lol.I also ordered a twin sized air mattress, hoping it was big enough to hold that on the bottom and still have walls, to make more flat space for two people. But it didn't work. Took up all the space. Dumb idea, don't waste your time on that idea lol.SoPros:Very bigStrongRain fly is giantBest for one big person.Can sleep 2 but at a comfort level of 4/10Cons:Very DeepRainfly is a little awkward to set upThere's no way you are getting into this thing with a 2 person sleeping bag.Doesn't have stabilizer bungies.Doesn't have poles for opening up the bug net.This hammock would be good for a nap during the day with your partner. Not for a full night sleep while camping. As an added bonus , you could take apart the hammock and lay it flat on the ground and set up the rain fly on top of it like a makeshift tent. In dry weather. Since the hammock isn't waterproof. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️
