How does this hammock compare to the ENO double nest system?

Craig, I am not familiar with the ENO. I can say that the Clark is very well designed. I an 210 and 6'2". I have used it in rain and freezing weather. I love it. Only real problem I have run into is a scarcity of trees in the Hi-Sierra, at the timberline.John TCupertino, CA

I've backpacked with both ENO and Clark hammocks. If I had to choose just one, I'd pick the Clark. I do find the ENO system easier to set up (I have an older Clark, not this one), but the Clark beats it hands down if you need a 4-season setup.

Absolutely no comparison. I just bought the ENO for a nap type, casual hammock to slap up in a hurry and carry when traveling. When I go camping old Clark gets the nod without even thinking about it. I have only had the opportunity to lie in the ENO for a couple of short naps, so am not able to give you a definitive comfort test, but right now I don't find it to be as comfortable as my Clark, and I haven't made peace with the extra fabric along the sides of the hammock; it wants to flop over in my face. But take that with a grain of salt because like I said, I have not given it a fair chance.

I have both hammocks. I LOVE my Clark hammock! I could live out of it. It has a built in bug net and rain fly that keeps you dry in a downpour! It has PLENTY of space for items in the pockets or you can stuff things in there to keep you warm in the winter. And best of all you can pitch it as a tent! The Eno hammock is good for laying around in the yard. The Clark is good for serious backpacking/ camping. So it just depends on what you would be using it for. The Clark is worth every penny!!!

Sorry Rosie, I haven't heard of the Lotus either. Really like the Baby Bjorn 2. So light and easy to set up and pack up. I don't have a big baby so unless the lotus is a larger cot I would happily recommend the Babybjorn.

I have shared this hammock with another person on multiple occasions. However, it involved one of us having our head on one end and one having our head on the other end. It may take some shifting to get comfortable and your movement while sharing it may be limited...but it can be done and I never feared that it would break.

I do not remember on packing....but the hammock was outside since I thought it was made for this and it totally ripped through when my husband and I were sitting on it. We are not overweight. So.......I liked it but didn't last as long as it should have for the money I spent on it. I will look at the Eno if I order a new one. Thanks!

This Hammock is the BEST hammock I have ever used. I have a friend who's close to 300. No problems at all.

It does, only it doesn't click like the single one i had. It kind of just hammocks on the straps under, but it still seems sturdy. At first I didn't like it cause it didn't click, but we once I figured it out that it doesn't need to, I became more comfortable with it.

I would agree with Lee. Not long enough for the double. I do love the hammock though!

I would say you could make it work depending on how your hammock is designed. ENO hammocks have carabiners on either end of the hammock to attach to the loops of the slap straps. If your hammock has carabiners, or if you can attach carabiners to the ends of your hammock, then the slap straps will work.

These will work with any hammock, I have an ENO Doublenest with a bug net and it fits.

Yes, if that is what you would like to call it. The hammock is very hard to get in and out of UNLESS you are VERY SHORT. It was a struggle not to flip the unit when exiting. Our very quickly went to the junk pile. We tried contacting the company and they would not respond. They are cheap because they are cheap.

This is a very heavy duty hammock. The wood is actual teak wood which is very heavy and durable. Mine has been sitting out in the element for almost a year now and has no wear at all. Of course I have taken off the hammock itself but the wood frame has endured the seasons very well. I would definitely recommend this hammock.

I have to buy a new hammock that is much heavier to give me stability. I had the same problem so I experimented. The higher/tighter you make the hammock you flip. You guessed it it is situated close to the ground. I wish this company would give us credit for a real hammock.

Hi , Kris. We have had 350 in it with no problems. It's a good hammock but it sags more than I thought.

I find that the 2 attached to the hammock are sufficient. Pull the strap around the circumference of the tree, then feed one end through one of the loops to achieve desired length, repeat for second strap on another tree. Attach carabiners that are included with the eno hammock to the terminal loops of the straps. Then position yourself on hammock (carefully) and enjoy.

I don't know where it's made-- I chose Hammock Bliss over Eno, becuase the fabric is much softer/more comfortable.

It's approx. 1.5" feet wider than the standard Double Nest. There is a comparison chart on Eagle's Nest Outfitters website. If you're using this as an individual, the standard Double Nest is likely roomy enough. The standard Double Nest is designed for two, but the Deluxe simply makes it roomier; probably not necessary for an individual. (It's also 8 oz. heavier...take that into consideration if backpacking.)

it is not as wide nor long as I had hoped for (not a 2 person), I have it stored away at present, moving out of state, there fore I am unable to give you measurements at this time. When I set it up last year, I had to make a few adjustments to my hanging apparatus, my old hammock was a bit longer and wider. We had it between 2 large old maple trees in our back yard. It is well made and strong enough to hold my self and 12 year old grand daughter. It is very attractive, but the light color made me sure to bring it in each night. I think you may be able to contact the seller for the dimensions. Good luck, sorry I couldn't help more.
