Byer Easy Traveller

rated 5.0 of 5 stars

Love it!!! Lightweight, compact, easy to hang anywhere, and very comfortable. I use this many times in lieu of my tent to save weight on ultralight trips. Take it with me everywhere!

Pros

  • Solid material does not leave "waffle" pattern in your skin.
  • Does not tear.
  • Compact

Cons

  • Provides no warmth in cooler temps (of course, not designed for insulation)

This hammock is one of my favorite and best purchases ever! I take it with me everywhere. It's great for any kind of camping, or backpacking trip. I would not recommend it in cold weather, wherein a tent can better trap heat. 

This works well as just an easy setup to relax wherever you are. Setup is a breeze and can be hung almost anywhere. Cleans easily and dries quickly.

I have had this hammock for five years and it is still in as good of condition as the day I bought it. I have added two loops of webbing in the attached stuff sack and two carabiners; with this setup I can hang on any size tree or pole or even attach one end to my car. Definitely a must in your pack.

Have used it about a dozen times. On the AT and GSMNP. Has not let me down yet. 

I have used it in in all four seasons backpacking and canoeing with the Boy Scouts. I use it with the ENOS slap strap system, and good D rings and it works great. Very lightweight, sturdy and comfortable. 

I can't tell the difference in quality between ENO's hammocks and this one when setup next to each other. I use a silnylon etowah outfitters tarp with it. My son also has one and has yet to have a problem with it.

Price Paid: 29 bucks
