This is a great hamock. Im an avid backpacker and hike nearly every weekend. I much prefer hammocks over tents. I get so much better sleep. Until the nx270 winter camping with a hamock was impossible for me. I have used it on 4 weekend hikes now. I orderd it at the end of december and despite the holidays i received it promptly it was deliverd as I was literally leaving my house to go camping. When I got to the trailhead I took out my tent and sleeping pad and stuffed this in my pack. I was a little worried because I rarely take gear I haven't tested/set up at home first. Set up for the hamock was simple. Two ropes two trees two minutes. It is a bit different set up from my other hammocks as you don't hang it very tight. The Rain fly takes a bit longer to set up at first u ntill you have done it a few times. I recommend bringing a few tent stakes or extra rope to utilize all 8 tiedowns if its windy or you're expecting snow. The hamock ropes are plenty long and never stretched. I like that they do not absorb water. Anybody who has struggled to untie a frozen rope will appreciate that. The first night I used it was 29 degrees and rain/sleet most the night. I stayed 100% dry. The extra tie outs came in handy due to the wind. The fly is big enough to cook get your gear under so everything is protected. The pockets are very spacious and are excellent for putting in clothes and such for insulation. I put my canister fuel in one to keep it warm. Due to the pockets design I never felt it even though it was right under my back. The fly has withstood several inches of heavy wet snow and shows no sign of stress. Had I pitched it steeper the snow would of slid off. With the underquilt and a good sleeping bag rated to 15 degrees I was comfortable down to 9 degrees and I think I would of been fine had it got even colder. That was without useing a sleeping pad or any insulation in the pockets. Also at 9degrees was the only time there was any condensation/ ice inside. It was a very small amount. All the other nights in it there was none. This is definitely a great four season hammock. getting in and out of it is so easy compared some other brands. I love that I can sit in it hang my feet over and put on my boots. I am a big man 6'2" 280 pounds and I never felt cramped. It is very roomyI think this is a very durable quality product and will last a very long time. There wasn't a single flaw in the stitching or material anywhere. If I could change anything about it it would be the mosquito netting and the top could be removable. That would save a little weight in summer months when all you need is the fly. As far as weight goes even with the underquilt it's still lighter then any other winter set up ive used. I've thru hiked the Appalachian trail and many other section hikes. I use my gear regularly and in all kinds of weather. I'm not easily impressed. But I am with this product and will recommend it to everybody. Thanks for a great hammock!Update. 6/20/19Awesome hammock. I have spent over 250 nights in this. In all seasons and all weather. Hiking the Florida trail I experienced aweful storms (tornados within 10 miles of me) in New York and western Pa I've been through some heavy snow falls and week long rain storms. The only thing I've ever had to do was seam seal the fly once. It truly is a wonderful product and I cant speak highly enough about it. Thank you Clark!
