Wildhorn Outfitters Outpost II Hammock Review...11 ft!!!

[Chum!]

I don't like the feel of it. It just seems like a lot cheaper material, and it stretches a lot. Although, at the price point, I guess you can't really complain about it.

I see...I haven't had a chance to sleep in it yet, but I thought if felt great and it didn't stretch much at all. I even had to lower the hammock before getting in because I anticipated a stretch that didn't come.

When I say the difference between an Outpost II hammock and it's price point competitors is 'night and day', I mean that literally! At 11 feet long and up to 7 feet wide, Utah based Wildhorn Outfitters put together an all in one hanging system that I would camp long term in. From end to end, this hammock was built with most of us in mind...light weight aluminum carabiners, integrated Amsteel and cinch buckle suspension system, length and width...they covered the bases...and all for under $50 ($45 right now on Amazon)!

I put together two videos for Wildhorn Outfitters, the first one is an unboxing and hang demonstration and the other is a one minute summary review. Enjoy and discuss!

Thought I'd give it a try. Thanks for the review.

Looks ok I guess......

Just means the market is still open for a mass produced, 11' ripstop nylon hammock.

No direct shot at OP or Wildhorn intended, but I wonder why no one in the market can get it right? Sounds like a nice table cloth hammock!

Mine arrived the day I left for camping over the weekend, so I was able to get two nights of sleeping in it. This being my first 11-footer, I was really looking forward to the experience. It was extremely easy to set up, although I did do a double-take at the 200 lb. per strap weight rating and was prepared to switch them out with something stronger. But when I climbed in, everything felt solid so I went ahead and used them. I slept well both nights, enjoyed the extra room. I don't have any complaints with feel of the fabric and didn't really notice any stretch. I set up my ridge line and everything held up well both nights. I'm looking forward to using it some more and deciding if the 11 foot length is the way to go for me.

I guess it depends if your requirements are also that it be made in the USA, and that it absolutely must be 11'+.

10'6" ripstop hammock, super wide, with required hang hardware for $45. Campy brand name, made in China.
