Used this for about 10 night of ground camping, no opportunities for hammock mode yet. It is an ok tent, if a bit hard to set up. The problem came when the stitching holding on one of the 4 bottom corner clips failed. It is quite obviously a manufacturing defect, the tent has seen very light usage and the other 3 clips are in perfect shape. I attempted to get this failure repaired using Kammok's "adventure grade" warranty. I was denied, they claim it is normal wear and tear. So if your idea of "adventure grade" is a useful lifetime of 3 camping trips, this is the tent for you. The warranty is a lie, buyer beware.
I bought this product directly from Kammock which marketed it as a hammock that could also function as a tent. It’s not. It’s a pretty good one personal tent that can function as a hammock in a pinch. Pinch is the keyword here as the dimensions that work for it as a tent, where the corners are staked out, work against it as a hammock, where the ends are gathered tightly together. It’s way too narrow and short for my 6’2” 220lb. frame to find any type of sleeping comfort within. It’s more like a straight jacket than a hammock. I rate it a (1) as a hammock, a (5) as a tent, so (3) overall. BTW I bought this to use as part of a sleeping system for motorcycle camping for which it works great - as long as one uses it as a tent.
Bought this about 2 years ago, used it for around 10 nights of ground camping, no hammock opportunities yet. The stitching holding on one of the 4 bottom corner buckles failed, quite obviously a manufacturing defect, the other 3 are in perfect condition. Kammok has refused to repair it under their lifetime "adventure grade" warranty, claiming that it is normal wear and tear. So if you think "adventure grade" means something more than camping twice a year for two years, this is not the tent for you
Kammok came through in the end and replaced the whole tent after giving me some initial hassle with my warranty claim
