Looks alot like a Grand Trunk Skeeter Beater to me.

Thanks.Originally Posted by Grapenut
I agree, it looks similar. But the TSB is at a higher price. Also they advertised this "unknown hammock" as being only 200 grams. Probably a text error.
It looks like this one:

There was a thread on here many months ago with this exact picture linked to another ebay auction. I can't seem to find it at the moment.
The old adage of "you get what you pay for" comes to mind.

Looks like snug pack jungle hammock. Check out pro force equipment and they should have it there to compare. It's a good beginner hammock and I still have mine altho when you tie off the netting and not the hammock you end up sewing.....

Yep. A China manufacture non-branded hammock. I've seen a few that look worth investigating.

A lot of the retail hammocks wind up needing a suspension upgrade. I replaced the climbing rated rope on all my Grand Trunk Ultralights with Tree straps, whoopie slings and an adjustable ridgeline. It was pointed out in a different thread that after all the upgrades, you could have bought a complete hammock from a few of the cottage vendors.Description Materials: Nylon and Nylon Rope
Lets look at the costs:
$17.55 - GT Ultra Light - Green (Expect to pay more for other colors)
$53.60 - Dutch Buckle Suspension Kit
$13.79 - KAQ Dynaglide Adjustable Ridge Line
$20.00 - MountainGoat Hammock 12x8 Ridgeline Organizer
$104.94 - Total cost before shipping
Are you really saving anything by buying a cheap hammock? Still I'd by it just for the purpose of testing it.
