- Starting out camping can be very expensive and me for one started woodland camping on the cheap said ..
BUT CHEAP MEAN RUBBISH MOST OF THE TIME .
Look at this on eBay www.ebay.co.uk/...
I have one, it's actually nice and durable. I'm 250 lbs an I rolled on top of the net an it held me. No shit either. I recommend one for a cheap hammock
I have this hammock.
Ive modfified this hammock for an extremly fast set up.Ive changed the tree straps as theres no way id trust the ones that come with it and ive also changed the para chord for the bug net to shock chord.Also i made 2 spreader bars for the bug net out of 2 peices of old fibreglass tent poles.Ive had this hammock for 4yrs and can not fault it with the mods i have made.This hammock now is easily as good as some of the top brand ones for a couple of quid mods.I highly recommend it.
Yep, I'll send that. Did almost the same and found it to be great. I got what was supposed to be a double hammock. But not really sure its any different from this one, I didn't actually check the sizes as it seems to be big enough whatever it is :) I'd change the carabiners from the heavy steel ones supplied to some lightweight aluminum ones and some straps to replace the rope and its good to go.
The start of this video had me thinking you were some kind of scandinavian lol.. until the english came back into sync.. 😅 nice vid on the hammock bud
Hi mate thankyou for watching I have to say if you are thinking of getting this hammock it's OK for the money
Good value at that price,have you a link for the product as I can’t find it on amazon uk
I just got one on Amazon for £4.50😂 I already had one managed to get two underquilts for £35 on a special offer so had to buy this for £4.50 for my second underquilt I just hope my luck dosnt turn into snapped straps and rude awakenings 😅
Excellent video. The only thing I would recommend is using some elastic shock/bungee cord for the net. Just incase someone ties the net suspender strings too high and when they sit in the hammock it pulls on the net too much. Otherwise it's a great hammock, just got mine today
Hi mate thankyou for watching this video, I still use this hammock now,
Is this still holding up well?
This is a brilliant review of a budget hammock.
Thank you for the upload.
I might get one and compare it to my dd hammock.
Did u do it? What was your conclusion?
Evening buddy 😁. That's a good 💡. I'll have a look at that. Thanks for that. I've never had one so it would be interesting too live it up a bit ha ha. Thanks for sharing mate ATB, Andy
Hiya mate, amazing video! The link doesnt work, could you tell me the exact name of this please?
It's not selling on amazon now mate
I was thinking, perhaps you could go to an archery shop, and get two used arrow shafts. Have the bow master glue a nock on each end. They could be used to hold the mosquito net apart.
Great idea thankyou.
@@englishwoodsman I have done the same thing with the arrow shafts, they work well.
Cool vr I’m looking at a thing from a company called free soldier
Thanks 👍 I might get me one when I have extra money!
Hi mate for £12 they are pretty good,
Thanks from the states my friend. My wife and I enjoyed the review and we like ours as well. Best of luck
Hi thankyou for watching,,
I hope you have some free time to watch more of my videos,
I hope you and your wife have a great week
These have been upgraded since!
I just ordered one £12.99 eBay. As you say see how it goes but getting older might be better for my back. Did it have a tarp? No matter I have 3.
I started out with a cheap Chinese hammock and loved it,,, moved on through other hammocks now,,, currently using the dd frontline xl,,,,,, but I would never recommend using the solid cord they supply with the bug net, for just a few £££ please anyone looking at these swap it out for bungee cord,,,, will save stitch stress or worse, rips nice first look vid though atb Mike
I would love to see a review like this for quanfeng qf hammock with the bug net since that's the only one I've bought as my first one
Thanks for posting. Wondering what the stitching is like ect? Seems seriously dodgy materials. Just curious as I’m broke and want to get something to try hammock camping.
I'm kind of new to hammock camping and am always looking out for cheep hammocks and that looks the kind of thing I would get could you let us know the ling for that hammock please
I have the same one from when i 1st started out with hammocks. Used it for 6 months without problem until i upgraded to a DD one. Only mods i did was use daisy chain tree straps and made some spreader bars for the bug net out of some carbon fiber arrow shafts. I still use it now for day camps as its packs so small and its light. Regards JB.
Im gunna try one of them. Change to 7 strand para cord and some climbing grade caribenas and its good to go.
I've got this hammock, it was my first one. For its money its a great deal. Better to use with tree straps to be fair lol, the sound of slipping ropes scare the hell out of me lol
I think shock cord would be the better option for the bug net’ but pretty good for a £12 hammock.✌️✌️✌️
For reference, how tall are you? After a year of ownership, how does it fair?
Do you have a link to this hammock? Thanks
Decent review, I don't want to splash the cash when £12 can get you that hammock any links for purchasing it ? atb Dave
Look at this on eBay www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152297555595
looks like an ok hammock if you were just starting out
Good video and review sometimes cheaper is better
Interesting, do you have a link - I can't find it on Amazon (or I'm blind)? I mostly do moorland camping, but have thought about trying woods camping with a hammock, but like you said, didn't want to spend a lot of money only to find out I didn't like it.
Try ebay mate

Don’t worry about other people do what you want to do love the budget review side of things I have the Aldi tent old now but was only £15 I think at the time single person and it’s held up to snow wind rain and Snowdon wild camping !!!!!!! Sometimes the budget end of the market can be really good keep doing what your doing mate 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I had one of these. Broke on me first night.
4 half's??????
Thank you

Can't moan at that price.
