So I bought two (cheap~ish) hammocks...

[Darian]

One from walmart, and then the whole eno set.

I thought, since I'm new to it I should start from the bottom, and bought the equip double hammock from walmart.

It Is WONDERFUL. I can find nothing I don't like about it and it is permanently in my backyard for now. I love reaching wrapping myself in the excess, hanging half out, swinging in it... it's 12ft long I think, and I love laying perpendicular with my legs crossed. I spent last night in it.

Then, I thought that I should get either an eno set, Hennessy, or Kammok just for kicks.

They were all out of Hennessy at my REI. I ended up with an eno after hearing some negatives about Kammok's customer service, thinking they were about the same.

I HATE HATE HATE the eno!!!!!

I can't get comfortable in it... the middle entry bug net is beyond annoying... and the bug net came with no instructions, which is just a personal peeve. The straps were just fine. I just can't explain all the ways I dislike it. I was super excited too... then got in and the quick descent to dislike happened.

I plan on returning it. I really don't know why I bothered with that. It's not even worth keeping for funsies (to me).

But hey, at least now I better know what I'm looking for! Now to just go order what I want.

Hey, If you love that Wally World hammock then you know what they say - hang your own hang (HYOH) and hang-on!

[JmBoh]

I agree with TrailSlug. If it's comfy, go with it!!

[AsaHanger]

If it ain't broke don't fix it! Maybe just tinker here and there.

The Equip 2-Person Travel Hammock is about 10.5 feet long, but it is significantly wider than standard width (owing to its 3-piece body construction), so relatively tall campers can still get a reasonable diagonal lay that is also sufficiently flat; IIRC all the other Equip offerings at WM are well under 10 feet.

I'm happy the wallyworld works for you! Sounds like a great lounging hammock (I'm always envious of people who have backyards to constantly hang in).

But definitely return that ENO if you hate it so much. I would consider (for a cheap option) a Dutch netless since you seem to just be trying stuff out as you enter into this.

I might just hang with this one for a while.

I love the feel of the breeze and hanging my legs over the side and being rocked... I can lay on my side and belly like in bed... I know that I'll need to get a bug net of some sort for any adventures... we've got brownies and widows for days and I can only imagine the nasties that would get me in the Woods if I went netless :/

And ugh, the wasps.

I've got all 3 styles of Equip hammock and have never had a problem with them. I don't use the single or mosquito net anymore since I have my WBBBXLC and 11' argon hammock that I made, but still use the Equip double quite a bit. I added a zing it RL and amsteel CL's on the ends to make it a little nicer since I use it still. Its my go-to hammock for lounging inside or down on my beach since its cheap and I don't have to worry about my daughter jumping in it and tearing it or getting it sandy and wet. The Equp mosquito net isn't that bad, but I modified how the net is hung to make it easier. I tried sleeping in it the other night but after getting used to my nice hammocks, I was really uncomfortable in it. But it was my first netted hammock, and at the time I loved it. I also use the double a lot with my Snugpak Coccon since I made the RL easy to take off. Good luck with it, I never had a problem with mine.

For cheaper than an ENO, you can buy a top notch Dutchware Netless 11ft hammock. He ships quick too.

Despite finding that my beater SnugPack 'Tropical Hammock was really cramped at only 9ft long, I for some reason don't find the ENO doublenest uncomfortable. It's nowhere near as comfy as my Dutchware, but I still can get comfy in the ENO.

My issues with Hennessy is that they only make one or two high weight capacity models, and Warbonnet's traveller is the same issue. You basically have to do a Double layer to get to a 400 lbs capacity hammock.

You, among others, have mentioned Dutch... I went a-looking and his summer sock looks absolutely perfect! Being able to pull the sock to one end would solve my issues with the eno net... I could chill until ready for bed, and then just pull it back over like in his video. Seriously considering a Dutch hammock because of the sock and affordability.

That reminds me, I did some homework in my hammock and it was lovely. I got the dog to come in as well. Had to help her get her butt in cause she got stuck on the way, but it worked out well!
