Parachute Hammock

[vanreg]

I am looking for information on parachute hammocks - what brand, where to buy, what kind of straps, etc. Any info would be helpful, I am at a loss here and it's the only thing DD really wants.

Eno is the brand most people I know have purchased. We bought the straps from them too. We got my DDs at REI.

Same situation here.

I just bought ENO double hammocks for my three kids for Christmas! The double hammocks are $69.95; single are $59.95. I also bought the ENO atlas straps for them as well -- $29.95. I bought the three sets at Dicks during their Black Friday sale, but maybe you could use a coupon with them.

There are a bunch on amazon. I have the neolite.

Here's a different one with straps for 54.00. Great reviews too.

How funny my DS asked for a hammock this year too. Who would have thought that many kids would want one.

Can I ask what you do for mosquito netting with these? It seems like most don't come with it?

I have had an ENO for years. I have a single and the straps from ENO which are the slap straps. These were really popular with my coworkers when I worked at a youth camp in college.

@DoBug the ENO company sales a bug net for theirs. Not sure about other companies. They have a ton of accessories.

Thanks - this looks great. We saw many on our last couple camping trips and were jealous

My son has a hammock and uses it for boy scout camp. He's now asking for a mosquito net but it seems they're as expensive as the hammock. Anyone know of a good one that has a mosquito net as part of it?

It was several years ago but when my scout went to overnight camp, I found an inexpensive net at the Boy Scout store that was on the camp grounds.
