Seam ripped down the center after first night using

Has lasted through terrestrial rain and 0 degree weather for a year now

I've had it out a few times, and it's been great. On the ground its pretty small, but if you use it as a hammock there's plenty of space. I love that I can use it as a small hooch shelter if there's no good trees to hang it from though.The material seems durable enough, I haven't had any problems with zippers or clasps yet. It's pretty light weight, and packs down small.

Went on a overnighted hiking trip. It’s a great idea and it’s light enough that it didn’t bother me to haul around in my backpack and kept the bugs out when in it.The only issue I had with it is that I could only take about 4 hours in it without getting uncomfortable from the stuck position you’re in and the how cold I got even though it’s the middle of august. There’s nothing protecting you from the wind and even with a sleeping bag it gets to you, once you’re up its hard to go back in the tent hammock.

Great value for the money, easy setup and easy tear down…appearance as pictured, very portable and well designed. Used it in mid April along the Michigan shoreline, performance of the rain cover, great to blocked the wind and hammock blanket kept me warm….Size was expected.

My co-workers think I am nuts for camping in a hammock, but what good sleep I get!First thing is learn is getting it setup level and the right height off the ground. Second is getting the tension on the two bungee anchor lines good. And third do not roll over while sleeping.After figuring it out it's a great hammock. I have slept in heavy rain storms and windy nights and was bone dry. It packs up nice and light, easy to set up (after getting the basics down), I even hang items on the rigging to keep them off the ground at night. The sleeps are great with a nice blanket and you really do not need a pillow at all. I did notice a little stretching on the rain fly near some stitching but have not noticed and leaking from it.It will get alot if use for my 2025 camping season.

En kayak pas trop gros et léger bien consu , peut installer rapidement comme hamac pour une sieste ou pour plusieurs nuits.

I bought this and really enjoyed using it for a six-night canoe-camping trip to Northern Ontario. I learned a lot, made a few mistakes, and had a few problems. I did have some damage to the poles when I returned, certainly partly from my own errors. However, I was thrilled with the excellent and very rapid service from NightCat. They probably have the best customer service I’ve ever encountered.Below, I include my advice.- First, I recommend getting this hammock (or a higher end model). Why? Because it is a novel experience; it is comfortable; it is a very reasonable price; and it is flexible (for a nap, as a camping hammock, and in a pinch as a bivy sack).- Second, ensure the hammock is as tight as you can make it when you first connect it. It will loosen a little as you use it. You will be more comfortable this way. Yes, no matter what you do, you will have your head and feet slightly higher than your middle.- Third, always use an inflatable mattress. It will keep you warm underneath. It will also reduce the sagging from side to side, so your shoulders don’t get pushed together.- Fourth, with an important warning, you can put an inflatable pillow under the middle of the mattress to reduce the sagging for the middle of your body. If you adjust correctly, you can comfortably lie on your side with your head on the mattress, your hips above the pillow, and your feet off the mattress on the side. (Remember warm socks to do this).- Fifth is the important warning. You might think it would be even better to put more things under your mattress to get the right surface. That is only a good idea until your center of mass rises above the height of the two ends of the hammock. As your center of mass rises, the hammock will become more tippy. Once your center of gravity is too high, the hammock will spin.- Sixth, on a rainless night, it can be fun to leave the fly off the hammock. You can see the moon and the stars, while still being protected by the screen. If you do this, note that you will be much cooler than if the fly were in place. 10 degrees Celsius (50 F) requires warm clothing and a warm sleeping bag.- Seventh, whenever you set up, you must ensure you can easily and correctly get into the hammock. You will get in by sitting on the door side and turning to lie down. That means you need somewhere to stand that allows you to comfortably get on the hammock in a side sitting position. That also means that the hammock must be able to freely rotate around its ends. When you sit, the door side will lower and the back side will rise. That is why you have elastic guy lines tied on the back side. They stretch to allow you to get in and then release once you are lying down. Ensure they can stretch freely. If the guy lines do not have enough give, you may bend your poles.- And some bonus advice connecting the fifth and seventh points above: if you notice the hammock is extra tippy, look to lower yourself, do not try to tightly secure the sides. It must be able to spin freely enough for you to get in.- Ninth, when you are in the hammock, you have limited mobility and may not be able to access everything you want at night. The hammock has a small bag sewn near your head. There is one at each end. This can hold a few items like a phone and a small flashlight. In addition, there is a hook above your head. (Again at each end). You can hang a net bag from that hook with a few more items. You could also stuff a small pillow for your head with clothing items you might want at night (i.e., gloves if it gets cold) or items you want to change into in the morning.- I put my boots and bug spray in a bag on the ground outside the door side of the hammock.

Ive used a couple hammocks for my deep backcountry trips, this one so far has been the best. Rained on my last trip about 50mm overnight and not a drop got to me. Only real issue is make sure youre zipper is closed 100%. The mosquitos love hanging out between the rain guard and the hammock so I had one rough night when I accidently left the zipper open a couple inches. Good build quality. Make sure you have paracord to tie down the sides.

It sets up easily. The bug screen zippers are pulled quite tight when laying in the hammock. Hopefully they last. The arched aluminum poles keep the bug net and rain fly domed well above you in the hammock. The two hooks on the inside are usefull for hanging a light. Onlytried 2 nights(1 rained) in the yard and it worked well. Only got down to 16 degrees celsius, but having the matching underquilt definitely makes a big difference. I wish I would have noticed the version with the pocket for an inflatable under pad. It was only $10 more but also makes a huge difference having an inflatable pad under you to keep you warm. This setup is about the same packed size and weight as my ultralite tent, but adding the underquilt starts to make it a lot to carry if backpacking. I like it, but find using a hammock with regular bug screen and separate full rain fly a bit more usefull because a regular rain fly can cover your gear.

Very good purchase. The hammock is perfect. The only thing I miss is a pocket for a mat. I know some versions of this hammock have it. Anyway it is a really a nice and useful thing. The mosquito net is great. Recommend it!

Práctica.

I love to go camping and have a great sleeping bag and bivvy sack. I was looking for a mosquito net for my bivvy and came upon this. It can be a hammock tent or a regular ground-based tent. You can use the mosquito netting with or without the storm fly. Its versatile and takes up half the space of my one-person tent.It's very roomy - more so than a normal hammock; My friend who uses a hammock almost exclusively when he heads into the woods praised the Nightcat extensively.It arrived one a day that was cold and rainy. I didn't get home until about 11pm and my whole family was in bed. I was so eager to try it out, I tied it on to my backpack and walked a mile into the woods. First time pitching it in the drizzle, wind and dark was very easy. As I got into the hammock the rain started coming down hard. I was dry, warm and comfortable all night.REALLY IMPORTANT: THIS SHAPE SHEDS HIGH WINDS VERY WELL.A few weeks later my buddy and I headed out to an island along the coast. We hung our hammocks as the wind started to rise. It was an awful night because of the loud thrashing we took, but I was snug and safe. Normal hammock flys would have ripped off but this one stayed on all night. The Nightcat took no damage and the fly didn't even shift around. We later found out that the winds were a full gale (40kts) with gusts over 50 knots.
