One other consideration: plan to anchor whatever you get VERY well. Even a moderate breeze can make those go airborne. Like, FAA license- type airborne. Don't ask me how I know....

"I fish because I love to; because I love the environs where trout are found, which are invariably beautiful... because, in a world where most men seem to spend their lives doing things they hate, my fishing is at once an endless source of delight and an act of small rebellion; because trout do not lie or cheat and cannot be bought or bribed or impressed by power, but respond only to quietude and humility and endless patience...." --Robert Traver
Oldgringo and Bonsaihiker are right- screen houses are vulnerable to wind. We tried two different types in our yard (pre hammock days) and each was instantly destroyed by wind although we don't get that much wind in our location. So we gave up.
I’ve got the Coleman 10x10 version and it’s decent, haven’t hung underneath it because the motorcycle got there first. I’ve had it up in some good wind and didn’t have any problems, staked it down really well.
It was cheap, @ $100.
I have hung my WBRR in my Nemo Bugout shelter.
I ended up getting a Quictent 10x10 Ez Pop up Canopy with Netting The bad news is it's really a 9.5"x9.5" and my hammock stand is really 14.5' so the stand does not fit in the tent diagonally. I'm going to get a section of rigid electrical conduit to replace the center tube and that should fix the problem. I'll send a picture when I get it set up.
I'm also working on a coat-rack like stand to allow me to hang a Gravity Light so I can read outside at night.
Taking your advice I have it anchored with 8x Helical Ground Anchors
