Then most people felt pressured into leaving 4-5 stars no matter what, usually 10 minutes out of the mailbox without really giving it an honest test.
    Of course they did, and it was the best $.33 I ever spent! I feel like I gave the product an honest review and didn't feel "pressured" to make it a good one. Again, this hammock is being compared to the other hammocks being sold on Amazon and even our box stores here in the US. The target consumer looking on Amazon for a budget hammock should know they are all pretty much the same thing/different label/different price. I just got home from a 3 day car camping trip and used this hammock for recreation and fun with the kid, and my review stands.

    This girl LOVED it!! IMG_6221.jpg

    These come in at 330cm. I have used one for years. If you want a Chinese hammock you might as well not pay more than you have to. Current price is $14 with tree straps.

    If you are going to spend 30 you might as well add 12 bucks to that and get a hammock from dutch.

    Got my double hammock for 13 bucks. It's a foot longer and way more comfortable than an eno in my opinion. I like it better than my hh also.

    Based on the images, the carabiners look to be ~200lb steel (or zinc; can't tell) snap links you can find in the hardware store. They have a small tooth lock which is their only saving grace.

    I used these on my own hammock in years passed. They will work for a while, but i have actually bent mine out. They can be damaged if they get twisted too hard. I have long since replaced them with climbing carabiners.

    Probably okay for home use, but I don't consider these safe for backpacking when retreat is not an option. YMMV, proceed with caution, and all that.

    I could be wrong, but I think they get the 102" long by measuring the rope and everything.
