I own original BB's, an XLC and an Eldorado. I prefer the original BB. Between the XLC and Eldorado I prefer the Eldorado. I really like the shelf in the XLC and the BB as it allows me to store alot of gear in it.
I am still 18 but with 52 years of experience !
Can you get an Eldorado in an 11' hammock? If so 55 bucks for a shelf is steep. If the Eldorado is only a 10' hammock like the original was.
Then spend the extra 55 bucks. Not for the shelf but for calf ridge relief.
If you look at my avatar I am in a 10' original BB so I know a lot about 10' WB hammock calf ridge issues.
Yes, in fact the Eldorado and XLC are the same hammock body. The differences are the zip on netting and/or top cover. The Eldorado netting does not have shelf, and is meant to save a little bit of weight. All of the Eldorado and XLC zip on netting and covers are interchangeable.
I've got both and the xlc is wider the Eldorado seems more narrow
Its a good day to be out in the woods no matter the weather.Mist One..
