Comments about ENO Doublenest Hammock:
The most comfortable night's sleep I have had yet. For the price, this is near perfect. Very easy to set up (especially with the ENO slap-straps). This is the least tippy hammock I have ever tried; It is even safe to sleep on your side!!! I have only used it in cold weather so far (40s) and it was great. I do recommend sleeping with a sleeping mat/pad with it though for insulation in colder climates. The only thing that I dont like about it is that it is hard to get into your sleeping bag when it is in the hammock. Especially when it is in the middle of the night and you are half asleep. The sides of the hammock are large enough to cover over you to protect you from the cold, bugs, etc. I would recommend bringing closepins so you could pin the side flaps closed, otherwise they will just fall back down.
The hammock could also be used as a bench/chair for a couple of people... it has a 400 lb. weight limit, so you could fit 2 or 3 people on it fine. Its nice to relax on :)
I think the only thing it needs is some pockets... I use the stuffsack (its connected to the hammock) as a pocket, it works alright, but a couple more would be great!

Comments about ENO Doublenest Hammock:
This hammock is amazing.
I sleep on it every night. It's better than a bed. I wake up feeling much better, every morning.
One thing I would strongly suggest, if you're planning on using this under 60 degrees, put a thin mat inside your sleeping bag for insulation. You need it. There's nothing underneath to keep you warm.
If it's going to be over 75 degrees at night, you're in luck! The breeze will be great and having no heat underneath you will cool you down tremendously.
Also, the slapstraps pro work amazing with this. But if you hang it between two hooks (like I have in my room, two hooks into the wall supporting it, it's not as comfortable at all as using the straps around a tree.
It's also too small for two people, but great to wrap around yourself to keep off a little wind or keep off the dew. I recommend this over the singlenest.
So if you're considering this hammock, just buy it. It's well worth it.

Comments about ENO Doublenest Hammock:
This is by far the easiest hammock Ive ever used. My wife and I camp at least twice a month, and ever since we got our hammocks, if the temperature is about 45 at night we are sleeping in them. Extremely easy to set up, takes up practically no room for overnight hikes, and if it gets wet, itll be dry in about 10 minutes after that. The hammock might be considered a little bit pricy, but we have had ours for at least 4 years now, use it on our camping trips about 80% of the time(so thats about 50 times or so) and it shows very little wear. Wonderful product!

I've used this product for more then a year and never been disappointed. The large size is large enough to fold over oneself to keep off the dew, and the built in stuff sack is a great place to keep a head lamp, water, or whatever else you may need in the middle of the night.
Brought on a recent backpacking trip when the weather dipped below 28 degrees. With my sleeping pad and bag I was completely comfortable and slept well. Clients were amazed. And the setup/setdown time is a great bonus that allows one to spend time doing other things. The view as you go to sleep is amazing.

I've tried several others but none compare to my ENO.In a tent it take me a long time to go to sleep. In my ENO my lights are out even if I'm not sleepy.I am 6'2" and 230 lbs. and if my wife would let me I would take the bed out of the house and rig my hammock up.

Leave the tent and sleeping pad at home. Paired with a tarp (any tarp will do, but the ENO's Dry Fly fits perfectly) you can drop the weight of a tent on your next trip out. The Double Nest is really just a roomy one person hammock, I've never spent more than a few minutes in the hammock with another person, because it just gets too close and personal. Whatever size you choose, it doesn't get more comfortable than the hammock. On cooler nights, you will want a sleeping pad beneath you. On warmer nights, you'll appreciate the natural air conditioning of a light breeze. Once you've taken a nap in the hammock, you won't go on a day trip without it.

Comments about ENO Doublenest Hammock:
I first bought my ENO when I was counseling at a camp in CO, totally loved it for late afternoon naps as well as setting up randomly when taking campers rock climbing. Ended up using it as much as my Chaco sandals and it still looks and works great!
I've used it countless times when climbing fourteeners; instead of sleeping in the car or the hard ground before heading up the trail really early I used my ENO and was well-rested for each climb.
Works great for afternoons at the park while slacklining/playing frisbee/whatever. Plus the Doublenest size is perfect for relaxing with that special someone.
Slap-straps are nice for convenience but knowing how to tie a simple over-hand knot with 1" webbing does the same thing.

Comments about ENO Doublenest Hammock:
This thing is so comfortable! You can't avoid falling asleep as soon as you climb in. Unless, of course, you forget your blankets! On a breezy day, this thing will sap the heat right out of your body so fast you wont be able to make it out alive, unless you've got a decent layer under and over you. That doesn't mean I don't like it - I love this hammock. My fiancée and I tried it together, and we found that "double nesting" is quite possible, but it's just not highly practical. You can relax, but don't try to sleep because you'll end up hurting each other. When used as a single person sleeping parallel with the sides, this thing literally turns into a full cocoon - you can wrap yourself up and be completely concealed inside, which is very nice. I will definitely be using one of these for camping the next time I go out.

Comments about ENO Doublenest Hammock:
I bought my first hammock, a travel hammock, and after sleeping in it for more than just a nap i rushed out and bought a double nest... I'm a bit taller than the avg... 6'3" and the double nest is perfect for an overnight sleep. I can nap easily in the travel hammock single, but if i want quality sleep i have to be in the double nest. I would advise someone who tosses and turns in their sleep to get the double nest.. It would have been nice if ENO would have put some rope in to go along with the hammock but you can make up rope on your own, which is way cheaper than the straps...
Happy Hammocking!!

I absolutely love this hammock, it is perfect to rest any and everywhere. I have even used it along with a tarp and bugnet as a GREAT option to a tent. You can't imagine the places you can set this up that you would not even dream of setting up a tent.
