Hi,
I have never used a hammock and have been thinking of getting one for some time, probably since I signed up with this forum! I have seen there are loads of brands, but two that come up all the time seem to be DD and Hennessy Hammocks so I thought I'd ask some questions about them and ask for peoples views on both.
I can see that the Hennessy has a slight advantage as it comes with a tarp (hence the higher asking price, I assume) and has the novel entrance slit with integral mosi net. But then in a lot of videos people say it's quite a heavy hammock...The DD seems to be a simple hammock that can be used as a bivy as well (with the Travel hammock).
Is there anyone that has tried the two different brands that can shed some light on the pros and cons of each?
Thanks in advance
