Someone posted today a thread, and it was confirmed by Randy Smurf, that the Sparrow, Thunderbird, and Dangerbird now offer an symmetrical net/top cover options.
Chameleon!
Looks like you already got quite a hammock collection....do like most do, buy mentioned hammocks from each vendor, find the hammock that best fits you & resell the ones that didn't make the cut on hammock forums "for sale" market place. All those brands have resale value & move pretty quick. You may lose a little in the end but you will definitely find "the one"
HAMmock po·lyg·a·mist
I have the Warbonnet Blackbird XLC, the SLD Trail Lair, and more than one Dutchware Chameleon; none of that stops me from wanting a Dream Hammock Darien. Each of these hammocks has something special that I like about it, something it does particularly and uniquely well. While the acquisition of cottage vendor hammocks can and does certainly get expensive, I don't see anything wrong with building a stable (or an "armada", as Shug likes to call it) of camping hammocks that you like to use for different purposes -- or just because they are different; there are certainly worse things on which to spend one's money, and, unlike motorcycles, they don't take up very much space...

Ok so this is my run down...
So I own an XLC, Chameleon, and a Sparrow. Here is how I rank them.
1. Chameleon- the comfort level is right there with the Sparrow. But the thing that puts it in first is the amount of accessories that you can easily add, like the shelf.
2. Sparrow- super comfortable and very well made. It has more color options and customization choices than the other 3, though you will pay for those. Very easy to go from bugnet and winter cover.
3. XLC- this was my first big dollar hammock. I really wanted to love it and I kinda did for a while. When the hammock was hung perfectly, it was great and the shelf was such an innovative idea. But I found that the fidget factor just too much to consistently get right and the color choices are well...very few.
