[QUOTE="jakerz, post: 2018078, member: 18966"] I think DD Hammocks are the best. They're based out of England. They're super simple and rugged. They also have double layers to use for insulation. Also, the bottom is waterproof and the bug net is built in. So you can technically use the hammock as a single person tent if there are no trees. You take 2 sticks (I use my hiking poles) and pitch the bug net on each side and you're good to go. This is the main reason I bought it. No trees, no big deal. Although I'd prefer having them. I've had mine for a few years now and have used it 15-20 times. They're great. You can have it out and up in 2-3mins. DD also sells nice lightweight tarps to cover the hammocks in case of bad weather. Shipping usually only takes 3 days, which is wild. I can't say enough good things about them. Except for the pouch/bag the hammock is supposed to be stored in. The stitching came out pretty quick. Luckily, the wife can sew. Also, I have an older model, back when they only had one kind of hammock. Looks like they have a few options now. All would be great choices. Here's their website. I just ordered direct: [url]http://www.ddhammocks.com/[/url] Here's a review of the one I have: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEhzZ771PnI[/url] There are some pretty cool accessories you can get to go along with your hammock to make it quicker to put up. Like the whoopie sling (weird name I know). But I would suggest just getting the standard DD hammock or trying one out at this meet and go from there. [/QUOTE]
