Excellent review, great photo's that give you more of an idea of how large they are.

good post and good review! i've been thinking of a hennessy for awhile, but never found anything but the official blurb . they look good, and sound better so i may have to save up for the day my current one goes to the great woods in the sky.

Good review mate,

I had a play with one last week, seems good kit and comfy, the problems may possibly be down to quality control though, which is a shame with good kit.

Hi guys, I would not worry too much about QC. The review is still going, as it still does not have the inputs and pictures of my friend Bogdan, which is a > 90 kg mate....
The return rate of a major and extremely well known us online retailer (sorry can't give names) talks for itself: Expedition a-sym is 0.54 %, half a percent !. We unfortunately got one of these, and it shows in the review, because we are not there to hide things.

 

[JonathanD]

Yeah, I can agree with that, I just bought the Expedition and no problems with QC whatsoever, and cos' I'm military and treat equipment with disregard , that's really saying something.

Yeah, I've used an ultralight for a few years now, I love it, the most comfy place to sleep i have ever found.
I am waaaay overweight for it (too many pies ), but its "overengineered" and I've never had a problem.
Hennessies are top kit IMO, the best camping invention since the thermarest
(the best option for ground dwellers).
A good night sleep is invaluable, and a hennessy gives a great night sleep.

Just my 2ps worth

Been using my deluxe (im a fat git ) for a little while now, and im fairly happy with it. so far, ive just used a us poncho liner inside (half underneath me and half on top) But its getting chilly now, and ive been meaning to get a new roll mat for a while anyway-might treat myself to a thermarest
Ive heard somewhere that animal skins are great for sleeping on, especially inside hammocks. Might give that a go one day.
I generally pull my bergen inside with me, or hang it from the loose bit of rope at the feet end if its not raining. Speaking of rain, i cant seem to get completely covered under the tarp. Im sure its possible, im just probabley doing it wrong
But yeah, a quality bit of kit. Get the snakeskins too, if you can.
