Does anyone own one of these and an ENO that could compare/contrast them? I've been using my ENO doublenest for years and still like it, but would consider upgrading.
miholicWell I'm biased cause I'm the owner of Ultimate Hammocks. But here's the comparison. This is 1 ft longer than the ENO doublenest. They are the same width. Exact same fabric. Both have lightweight aluminum wiregate carabiners but ours are rated to about 3X ENO's strength. We use webbing loops to finish the ends instead of knotted cord. So they look better, pack up smaller, and are way stronger.
miholicI don't own the ENO but have spent a lot of time looking at them, though I do own the Ultimate from a previous drop. I doubt this would be much of an upgrade. In reality the ENO is probably the better hammock because of all the additional add-ons you can get for it like a bug net, rain fly, etc. This is pretty much just a lounging hammock, but I've been happy with its function camping this past summer. For the price it's a fantastic deal seeing as how the basic double ENO costs about twice as much, but if you're looking for a more versatile hammock, stick with the ENO because of its upgradability.
