I pulled the trigger on one so I don't have to worry about trees that are hang worthy in some of the parks I like to camp at. I got lucky on my last trip but it was close to not having big enough...
On the fence. Reading all the threads and great things about both. A little nervous about all the comments on how the Tensa takes figuring out to get it set just right. I do like the smaller...
Great comments. Thanks for sharing.
Is there a general rule of thumb for a minimum tree diameter for hanging? Most trees are easily more than stout enough but from time to time I am faced with one I'm just not too sure about and do...
It's here!!!! Now I have to figure it all out. Not sure when I can do that, my trees are way too far apart or too close.
So much goodness in such a small package.

And here it all is. ...
WooHoo! I am #174 and mine is in the mail! Can't wait for it to arrive.
Great! I'm 174 so maybe I'll hear something in a couple of weeks.
I don't know what I did wrong but I finally put together a Turtle Dog stand and it's not stable at all. Looks just like others that I see photos of and I got all the parts right off one of the parts...
Probably a dumb question since no one else asked it but why does the center post need to be shifted down when attached to the hinge? They're all cut the same length, why not have them all attached at...
I went with the Brick Red in 1.6 and the grey top. My UQ is the same grey on the outside so I wanted to match instead of throwing in yet another color. I hope I like the 1.6, my netless is 2.4 but...
Wondering how a brick red hammock with a deep purple top would look. My underquilt is grey and deep purple.
So many decisions. :scared:
I can't wait! Although I'm having trouble deciding on colors. I did increase my pledge for a peak shelf and bottle holder. Those should both come in very handy.
Good to know.
I emailed that question and never received an answer.
How long is your ridge pole? This looks perfect.
Having to choose left or right lay is what stopped me from looking at other hammocks. I lay both ways and don't want a hammock that does not allow for that; i can't imagine having such a limited...
Thanks Dutch! Much more than I had hoped for when I heard you were making a hammock with an integrated bug net. I'm in for the total package and I expect this hammock will meet all my needs.
Thank you! Very well done video with a lot of information. Solidified my decision to get in on this new hammock from Dutch.
Thanks! Very helpful. I've put in my order on Kickstarter.
Well, I'm brand new and just hammock camped the first time. I wondered about this so I tried porch mode to see how it went. I was perfectly warm all night each night. I only lowered that side when...
Just received and used my Cayenne Pepper UQ. It was exceptional.
That's what I have. I just didn't think it through in advance (not used to using a tarp) and didn't have them go to ground. It was not so cold the other nights and dogs were fine. I also learned...
The dogs had jackets, sleeping pads covered with fleece. Also food & water. But I had the tarp set up with a gap between it and ground which let wind in right at dog level. I'll remedy that in...
I'd like to say thanks for all the info on this site. I've had my Dutch hammock for a while. I tried it with a pad and found that to be troublesome and uncomfortable so I decided I would go ahead...

This was my setup. Worked great. When storms were forecast, I put down the porch side and everything remained dry.
Darn. Missed it, they are out of 12'. I would have bought another for that price. It was the older color which I like much better than the current green.
Received my Cayenne Pepper UQ right before my camping trip. This was my first real camping experience in a hammock and the UQ was amazing. It kept me toasty warm and was super simple to install and...
Thanks. I had found that video and it is helpful. I'll post after I've tried out the UQ and let you know how it's going.
My Cayenne Pepper UQ is here! I can't wait to try it out. This is my first UQ so I hope I figure out the setup / adjustments without too much trouble. The quilt looks great and I am very excited...
I've got a lot of work to do. I haven't gotten my Kelty 12 that tight. Thanks for sharing, this helps.
My Kelty came with thick non-reflective guy lines. I replaced with with Reflect It with Stingerz from Dutch.
I ordered a Loco Libre Cayenne Pepper UQ. I will be here in a few days. I am very excited.
Thanks to everyone for all the advice and input. I know there are multiple good choices but it really...
Well, I am waiting on my very first UQ. George was great about assuring he could get it to me in time for my upcoming need. He called yesterday to firm up the delivery date to ensure it would...
Thanks, that's one I was looking at.
I am looking for a full length UQ that won't break the bank and will work well with my 11' Dutch netless hammock. I've been reading various threads but could really use some advice. I want to go...
For years I've used a hammock for recreation on and off. Enjoy relaxing in my Mayan hammock. I have taken a hammock camping and upgraded to a great Dutch hammock; but have not slept in it while...
I agree, it feels great.
Yes it does.
My dog and I enjoyed our Dutch hammock on a recent camping trip. It was so comfortable I never wanted to get out.

Made some more adjustments and got some of the tension off the ridgeline. The hammock is great. Very comfortable.
Well, I raised the attachments to 7 feet and that was a struggle to get them that high. Let out more strap and ended up lower than I liked with barely some tension off the rigdeline. It's still...
I just received my 11 foot Hexon hammock with a structural ridgeline and dual knotty mod and cinch buckles and dutch clip straps. I ran outside and set it up in just a few minutes. My impression is...
Glad to read these opinions. I was considering an ENO, mostly because they seem to be available all over the place. Reading in these forums I learned about Dutch. My Dutch Hexon just shipped today...
I have read reviews of the ENO kits causing wall damage (gouging the wall). Has anyone here had that experience when using them?
