Just found this online while surfing for a new hammock. Does anyone here have any experience of these hammock chairs? Are they just a gimmick? Ukhammock stuff any good?

I thought the idea is quite interesting and at £12.50 its not that expensive a punt.

Uk hammocks are well respected. I almost bought one myself before Christmas but held off in case Santa brought one...he didn't so as soon as pay day arrives I'll be ordering one. There's a couple of good reviews on YouTube

Cheers, joab

not a bad idea, just another thing to carry though also it means you need to have trees in the right place near your sitting area. however, once you guys buy one and try it ill happy to be wrong and order one of my own

I used the edc hammock chair whilst on a canoe trip in Sweden in June last year, weighs hardly anything and packs up to the size of a tennis ball, works great, so much so that every time I got out of it one of my mates jumped into it and all bought one when they got back to the uk. Can also be used as a gear loft.

thats what i use as a gear hammock

The edc version from uk hammocks zips closed when used as a gear loft, it's also larger than the net option and more comfortable to sit in if that's the primary reason for buying. The build quality of uk hammocks gear is very high.

Tenth Wonder Hammocks are also excellent and they do a light weight hammock that will work as a chair/gear-store but it is also a bigger size to sleep in than even the EDC. Nothing like a lightweight hammock for a crafty snooze. No zip but then that adds weight and cost. I must say I much prefer material to net, a lot nicer.

I think I may push the button then. I think I will add some whoopie slings too.

You mean you aren't going to make your own?

I must admit to being totally sold on the EDC as a hammock to have stashed away to pull out while on a break.

Normally I use it in the woods when working with the cadets. I did have it on Dartmoor a couple of weeks ago. Found a couple of trees beside a stream to hang it. Stopped on top of Yes Tor and got a couple of my mates who had climbing gear to set it up using some of their placement gear and finally had it strung under a viaduct we were abseiling from.
