With the I notability to lay at an angle and the narrowness of the hammock, I was never comfortable in my nx-250. I keep it around mostly for people that want to try hammock camping. There are a lot of cool bells and whistles in it, but once I did A week in a dream hammock thunderbird, I put the 250 in the closet.
The thunderbird has a weather shield and a bug net. They also can be completely taken off so you can shed some wight in diferant seasons.
P.s. If you do go with the 250, check a totorial on modifying the spreader bars. The ones that come with are a freaking nightmare. A super important piece slipped off when I was setting up one night and I never found it. I slept that night with the hammock in my mouth.
