    Evergrn Downtime Hammock

    REI has the evrgrn hammock on sale for $37. Anyone have one. It weighs in at 6 pound so I was thinking car camping.

    I think I'll just give it a try since I have $600 in REI rebates.

    I looked hard at that yesterday at the REI garage sale as they're on clearance. I guess they're not selling. When I originally saw it, I thought about making one to take for lounging with Caminante-cita while car camping, but at that price you couldn't make one for less. I didn't pull the trigger, but came very close.

    I bought one and my 4 year old loves it.
    It's like a couch in the trees.

    A couple of the reviews suggest that it isn't designed for sleeping. Has anyone tried it? Might be a real deal indoor sleeper if comfortable enough.

    they had one set up last time i went to REI. it's like a porch swing/couch suspended like a hammock. looked comfy to lounge in. it's bigger than it looks in the pics. for 37 bucks i might get one to throw up in the yard when people are over in summer.

    Evergrn Downtime Hammock

    I picked one up a couple weeks ago for $32. It is not for sleeping and will try to dump you out if you try laying down in it. But it is comfortable with room for 2 or 3 adults depending on how close you want to sit. I think it will be great for car camping with kids.
