I have 2 hammocks, The Tenth Wonder Green Hornet (double zip version) and the Tenth Wonder Compact Hammock. When there's a chance of bugs I use the Green Hornet as it has the integral mosquito net and in winter I use the Compact - just a basic double layered gathered end hammock. It allows me to carry more insulation.
Most of the guys I camp with use DD Frontline Hammocks. I prefer the TW Green Hornet over the DD Frontline as the supplied suspension system is better in my opinion (25mm webbing as opposed to 'rope'), and the mozzy net suspension is a little better too. All you need to add is a couple of lightweight climbing grade carabiners.
The Compact is supplied with the same rope as the DD hammocks but I use 25mm tree huggers I bought extra.
I use the Snugpak underblanket as my research concluded it was the better of the 2 (DD being the other) in that price bracket and spec.
Check out my You Tube Video that I shot when I first got them both.

As for tarps I have both DD and Tenth Wonder 3 x 3 tarps. The DD is the Multicam and the Tenth Wonder is the Cornelius in olive green. The TW has the edge over the DD as it has presewn loops on the underside of the tarp for mozzy nets and also pockets behind the guy line loops for storing guy lines. If money was available I'd probably get a larger tarp for winter use, but I can get by with 3x3 for now.
