would love to review...just...cant *updated*
so i just returned from an extended excursion into the north of ontario canada's wabakimi park...very remote, very challenging at the best of times...like anyone, i purchased some last minute kit to fit the trip...in this case, the "winners" double hammock..took a quick peak initially upon arrival but silly me didnt set it up..after the rave reviews, and massive amounts sold, in addition to the attractive price i took for granted that worst case it would be more than sufficient for a long journey by pack and canoe...i promise you, i wont do that again... upon leaving, and a long day into the bush, we settled in for our first night.. no carabiners...one strap...which could have been little more than a minor annoyance as i had spare carabiners and plenty of cordage...but upon getting it set up and first time putting any weight on the hammock, (in this case, my rucksack) my minor annoyance turned into more of an anger and disgust...the little weight of the pack (heavy as it was, but far less than a person) was too much for the fabric and it fell through to the ground... that said, i cant fault the fabric as much as (upon closer/further inspection) it seems that the corner stitching had frayed which caused further stitching to come out with some weight on the hammock...im pretty sure that this might be an anomaly but after reading so many reviews i cant imagine QC not being ....better ...someone should have/could have caught this prior im thinking... thank goodness i had my bivvy and ground sheets, else i would have been more tired than i already was upon setting it up... im hoping that no one else receives what i have and that if/when you truly need a product like this, it doesnt wind up being little better than a pillow, as it did for me......it truly is a shame as i had some high hopes for this hammock, or at the very worst case, an average to similar comparable experiences for other hammocks.. but i simply cannot recommend something that had such an obvious QC issue.. for others considering this hammock, i hope you have better luck than i did..update sept 6 2018 - since my review, winners has reached out to me via several emails (which in itself shows their customer service is much better than most companies on amazon) and we have discussed the issue, my stance on it, and their position.. they believe i was simply unlucky and i agree that it may be an aberrant item from the normal quality... that said, the offered both a refund or replacement without hesitation... i have chosen for replacement if only to see if it truly was bad luck or not... once i receive (its already on its way) i will revisit the hammock and give an additional update.. but so far, i am impressed with winners for their dedication to their customers...for that, i tip my hat...update - Wed Oct 7 2018 - ...as mentioned my first encounter with purchasing this product wasnt a great experience... things missing, poor quality... however, due to the nature of the product, it very well could have been an Aberration... being that it may have slipped through unintended from quality control.. expressing it here in the reviews led to being contacted by the company(winners) who was concerned with my poor experience.. i will say this before continuing with the product review.. if nothing else, the cost of the item was more than fair considering the amount and level of customer service from an amazon vendor.. it is top shelf, and went a long way into deciding to give them a chance to rectify the situation...something, many amazon vendors wont do.. so they get 2.5 stars for that alone... along with my confidence to never hesitate to deal with them again in the future for my needs.. now, onto to hammock itself.. i honestly believe its difficult to "review" hammocks today since there are so many, with so many price levels.. this being an affordable hammock, competes with so many others.. all which share very similar designs, and quality... so for most folks, the basics matter.. if it works, its good.. ...that said.. THIS hammock.. has ALL the right features, that are reserved for more expensive hammocks.. and the best is, they get it right.. a GENEROUS amount of space, a durable choice in fabric.. GENEROUS amounts of line and strapping, strapping of good quality for even the heaviest load baring requirements... and so far (ive had the opportunity to use it twice under pretty extreme expectations and conditions) its held up as needed... now "IF" it only lasted these two prior excursions, then failed.. i would still believe it was WELL worth the cost of the hammock.. it definitely earned its cost.. but its just in the shape it was when i received it.. itll see many more adventures, and im sure will perform just as amazing as it did these past two adventures... so lets recap... immediately upon learning of my bad experience, Winners reached out, without prompting.. and sent out a replacement order at no cost.. discussed the issue, and allowed ME to decide what would be suitable for remedy...they were more than easy to work with and discussed the problems quite professionally.. and the replacement was noticeable different in the problematic areas... stitching was bang on.. all the pieces came as it should.. and during usage it performed as it was designed to do.. it held my weight, and much of my kit and didnt skimp on space during use.. all in all, i dont apologize for my first review, and i wont delete it as i would rather folks see the escalation and remedy that was all as a result of the professional attitude of the company.. i can say this, as someone who spends a lot of time in remote locations.. i would trust Winners to provide the gear i need for a successful outing... without a hesitation, and you can to.. and for the price/bang for buck factor, youll be hard pressed to find a better company...

2nd order, will update if something changes but really happy with this hammock
I originally ordered this hammock in 2018. Since then I’ve moved and lost the straps, plus my original one has some holes in it. I left it hung-up outside under some trees for months, so that’s to be expected. It’s still usable with a few small holes. Considering straps are almost as pricey as a new hammock, I just order a new set. I’ve always felt secure in this hammock and comfortable napping in it. It is VERY breathable which is awesome for a hot humid climate. Definitely do not recommend for sleeping on colder nights. I tried it once. However not only was I freezing, but also felt like a little bear burrito, and was paranoid all night in active bear country. Again, that’s on me. These hammocks are great, highly recommend.

This is the second one I buy!!
My favorite hammock. I weigh 230 and my son weighs 120 and it hold us up just fine. Love spending the cool afternoons on it under our oak tree reading a book with my son next to me. This is the second one I buy. The first one I lost when moving but it was still in great condition even after sitting outside rain or shine. Very comfy and large.

Have purchased a bunch- for gifts
Love it! Everytime someone uses it they end up falling in love with it. I end up having to purchase another one for myself since I tell them they can have it.

Great Hammock, Lasting Durability
I purchased this hammock in August 2017 so I would have a second hammock when camping and the kids wouldn't argue over and/or ruin mine. Now it's my favorite hammock.Since Spring of 2019 I've kept it up all the time in all kinds of weather in my back yard. I'll occasionally go out back and chill in this hammock for a while, and when I go camping I pull this one down and bring it with me.Pros:It has lasted with minimal wear showing on the fabric for 3 1/2 years, and it's still going strong. As I mentioned before, this has been out in the weather for at least the past 2 years with no issues.When I take it down to go camping, it still packs away in the included pouch, is pretty lightweight, and does not take up much space in my camping gear.When it rains this hammock does not hold water (I have another hammock that holds water, and it gets kind of gross if I leave it up).In addition to draining and "breathing" well, this hammock also dries out very quickly after it rains.It's comfortable to lie in, or sit sideways.I like that the pouch is attached and I can't lose it, also when I'm in the hammock I use the pouch to hold things, phone, keys, etc.I weigh over 250lb, and this hammock will hold me and my son (he's about 120lb) with no issues at all.Cons:The straps are not easy to adjust to a different size, so unless you have trees that are just the right distance away from one another and at the right diameter, you may want to look into getting some additional straps. With that being said, however, I've only been using the straps that came with this hammock, and they have served me pretty well.I sometimes have a difficult time getting out of the hammock, there's a trick to it that I've had to figure out. But I think this is more of a "I'm fat and uncoordinated" problem rather than a design problem with the hammock.Overall:I can't say enough good things about this hammock, I'm thinking about purchasing a couple more, and then I won't have to ever take down the one in the yard, and my camping hammock can stay in my camping gear.
