What do people think of https://www.costco.com/hidden-wild-d...100661741.html

as a car / date hammock

especially as compared to https://www.costco.com/klymit-2-pers...100527701.html

I have a Hennessy Hammock Deep Jungle XL for camping/backpacking.... would like to get an ultralight setup as well. Is that that Blackbird XLC? I'm 6'6" which makes things more difficult.

AND a previous costco clone of the double enonest I was going to move outside to replace the aldi single hammock in the backyard and move that to the bicycle hammock. I think four hammocks should be enough right?

One in the car, one in the backyard, one for the bicycle, and one for the woods. Enough? :P

Personally I would avoid it especially at your height. Unless I am missing it some place, I could not find a length on it. If it is the typical 9' version of the inexpensive overseas made hammock, at 5'2" it would be too short for me to want to take a nap or read a book in.

Jarrod at Simply Light Designs offers an 11' The Starter for 64.00. Jarrod has a great reputation for making a solid product that his repeat customer's here rave about. This is just one suggestion. Dutchware has a number of really good starter type products as do most of the vendor's who post here.

The Blackbird XLC was my main hammock for quite a while, and it could be considered an "ultimate" gathered end hammock I suppose...it's wide enough and has some features you either won't find elsewhere or you'll have to pay extra to get. The shelf came in way more handy than I ever thought it would.

But yes, definitely don't buy a shorter hammock. It'll mean a world of difference in comfort, or lack thereof.

Simply light designs 12’ trail lair or voyager. Super quality

At those prices I'd get both. 5 hammocks is the number you want~~
The Klymit would be the one I would crawl into as the extra fabric in the first one you linked always annoys my delicate sensibilities.

I bought one to use in the campsite for lounging (not sleeping).

REI out let has the Klymit cheaper.

12x6 Might be too wide causing loose fabric on sides. Knotty mods can help tighten sides, to reduce floppy fabric
or
12xfive and a half
144 inches by 66 inches
Again knotty mods can help

You deserve to be comfortable
Maybe you are already comfortable in hammocks that are extremely short
Or maybe you will only notice after using 12 footer for a while, and then getting back in a shorter hammock

Good luck
