    Actually, Kammock DOES have netting...the DragonFly which is longer than ENO's Guardian BugNet and made of a stiffer material. (I own and have camped extensively with both.) I prefer the DragonFly because it is long enough to use with my Tribes Provision Hammock which I prefer to the Roo. (The ENO Guardian is too short to use with the Tribes Provision Hammock.)

    Monica, I hadn't seen that one yet. There are a lot of hammocks on the market though.

    Looking at the photos, it appears to have the same fabric as the ENO and the Grand Trunk, but at a better price. It has the same cheap steel carabiners, which corroded over on my ENOs. Overall, it looks like a great starter hammock!

    Kammok had some failures with their original carabiners, as others have mentioned. One of mine simply bent straight at one point, too. They have since upgraded them and they're as strong as climbing ones now, with a unique feature that holds the lines apart. They don't use a looped nylon cord to hold the ends together, but rather, climbing rated dynema straps. I still preferred taking the dynema straps out and replacing them with Woopie Slings.

    The Kammok is still my favorite single layer hammock for lounging around. They came out with a limited edition Earth Day Roo (a Forrest Green color).

    I assume you work for Wise Owl Hammock or are in some way affiliated since it is on your click-bait website?

    I like the review you posted here. I have been digging around for more info on these two hammocks and I found your post and this kammok vs eno review very helpful.
