just wondering what everyone's favorite hammock is? I've been using a hennessey safari for a few years and really like it, but I have a tough time entering/exiting. I'm wondering what other hammocks out there compare to the hennessey. I'm not really concerned about price, I just want a tough comfortable hammock. any suggestions would be appreciated.

You'll be happy with their work. I like my HH much better now with the side zipper. I thought the bottom entry was a pain to use.

I'm a Warbonnett Blackbird fan. Love the side shelf.

I had a hennessy first. Then tried the WBBB. The footbox is what sold me. The shelf is a good plus, too.

I use an ENO Doublenest. It works, and so far (knock on wood) I have resisted the urge to upgrade.

Another vote for the Warbonnet hammock. I have the XLC Dbl 1.7 and it's very comfortable.

Very satisfied with the Warbonnet Blackbird. Footbox, big shelf, double layer underneath for pad users.... It's plain awesome.

Started with their NX150. Loved it but outgrew it. I now have their flex-180. Great hammock.

My fam got me a Clark NX-150 for Christmas. Love it. Used this summer in WCPP and will be using it again in bdub in a couple of weeks. I don't have anything to compare it against (first hammock), but never slept better in the bush. It does have some nice features, the hoops, pockets underneath, weather shield to name a couple...

I have an NX-150 as well.
Hard to get a better night's sleep - anywhere.
I also have the Hammock Gear 20 degree underquilt. What an amazing set of equipment.
I live in northern MN, so I'll be pulling it out of storage in a week or so just to spend some time sleeping out in much cooler weather.
I do know that if it's my choice, I'll never sleep on the ground again.
