Night Cat Hammock Tent Review

- We are now doing reviews on our channel.
We were very kindly given the full winter hammock setup from Night Cat (The Hammock Tent and under-quilt). This hammock is quite inspiring with its two way setup design. You can have it setup as a hammock or as a bivy tent for those times where you just can't find the right trees.
All in all I will say it's a well made bit of kit. There are one or two small issues as you will see in the video but these are minor and don't reduce it's quality at all.
Both the hammock and bivy style are very easy to set up whether you're a pro at camping or totally new to it.
If you are interested in the hammock and want to ask me any questions about it then please put it in the comments section below and I will give you my honest opinion/answer.

Cracking honest review video mate.
I do like the look of hammock,if I get myself a new hammock I know what I'm getting 😂😂😂😂.
ATB Dan 👍 👍 👍 👍
I hadn't seen the Night Cat before. I like a lot of the Night Cat design. It looks more of a true hammock tent that even the Haven. I loved the hoops at the ends as opposed to spreader bars. I also loved the camo because I prefer to blend into the woodland environment. I hope the manufacturer isn't discouraged, keeps the good part of their design and iterates to improve it based on this honest feedback. I'm 6'2" tall and would like to use the Night Cat for ultralight motorcycle camping, where I'd prefer to sleep in a lay flat hammock but need to sleep on the ground when there are no trees - on the beach, in the desert, in the plains and above the tree line.
To be honest the Haven is a much better product but the price does reflect that and like you said it's not much use without trees, so a bonus to Night Cat there. But sadly at 6'2" you have no chance of fitting in it comfortably. They do make a really good walking pole tent however that has quite a bit of room and a very generous porch. I reviewed their tent too and I fit in it fine at 6'1". Thanks for watching and I appreciate the comment.
I can see that is the main con of the hammock is the length. Shame that, cause it does look good. Great review gez and great effort also. Catch you soon 😁🏴
Really nice set up! Particularly like the bivvy set up, camo is perfect👍. Shame about the height issue though 😬. Good honest review Gez😊👊👍
Great review there mate. I enjoyed it not sure if I'd buy one those hammocks myself as I'm a bit of a lump and need room to move and stretch. Haha. Keep the vids coming 🤘
To be fair, it's fine for anyone 5'10" or shorter. The weight and width of a person won't be an issue, as it can hold 200kg. I'm 16 stone, and I toss and turn all night, and it just laughed me off. Appreciate the watch 👍👌🍻
@@boyzinthewood1 I’m 5’11” 17stone + and I had the best sleep ever in a hammock, I had a sleep mat which moved a bit but for someone that gets claustrophobic, I didn’t have a problem. Very easy set up too. 😊👊🔥 good honest review 👍
@ChiefScout_Outdoors I used a mat myself the first time and had the same issues with it moving. The under quilt solved that though. Appreciate the comment and thanks for watching 👍👊👌
Nice test Gez
Absolutely no use if you are 6’3” shame as it’s a good concept, bivy set up looked good
Cheers Adrian
Hey Adrian. Yeah it is a shame its not a foot longer. You can easily sleep with a summer bag in it which you just don't find with other bivy tents but it's also heavier than other bivy tents. Luckily Gavs only 5'10" so I'm giving it to him.
Will be catching up on your newest video this weekend 👍
I used mine last night in a storm! It did not leak one drop nor did it condensate! You have to set these up rigid!! Then the laying position is practically flat. …set straps 1.5 m from the ground! Key thing is RIGID!
I like the camo, but night cat logo is a bit large. I'm a short man, so think bivvy would be like a Tardis for me . Very good review man, good job!👍🏴
Thanks for the suggestion for the logo. We are planning on changing it.
@@nightcatoutdoor. Thank you very much for the reply night cat. Nice to see your listening to comment's.👍🏴
The logo would be fine. But its a cammo with this bright white logo, defeats the purpose. Make the logo black or brown at least.
@@nightcatoutdoorchange to color of the logo to something darker. People by camouflage for a reason. There shouldn't be a big white logo on camouflage.
@@MOpreppin. True words! 👍🏴
I've just got one and I'm going to have some method (like straps) of pulling the pole ends closer together so I get more height when it's in bivi mode. I want more height when on the ground.
I'm sure you could definitely fiddle with it to gain more height, and hopefully, it won't take away any more of the length in doing so, as it's already quite snug. Thanks for watching 👍
Interesting
Wasa great review bud.
Cheers buddy
I wanna see a torture test.. spray it with a hose if if it wont rain but i wanna see it wet and stay dry inside ..... that would make a great vid.
Would do, but I gave it away to another RUclipsr 👍
Defo way too small for me that. I still don't think it looks stable as a hammock and defo too small as a bivvy.
To be fair, there are no stability issues in its hammock setup at all. Genuinely, it was fine for that (once the bedding was put in). I'm a clumsy fool, and if anyone is going to fall out of it, it's me 🙃 but yeah, it's just too short for anyone over 5'10" Maybe they'll make a longer version but I wonder if that would banana too much 🤔👌
With the door opened what is there to stop it dripping in when you want to get out in the morning if it's raining?
In all honesty nothing at all. It's a bit of a gimmick in reality. I don't even take the tarp bit out with me anymore. I opt for just setting a normal tarp up instead.
