i recently bought a hammock from wal mart (hiking section),cost about 30 bones and folds up into a pouch that fits into a canteen pocket on my pack(just a lil bigger than a softball) its made from parrachute material, threads might not be that great around the tie offs but i used a rock and re tied it and have no problems, the hammaock its self is a solid peice with the only seams being at the front and back where u tie off.its super light weight really cheap and holds 300 pounds confirmed,i grabed a fatty one night and didnt even think about it,just got up in there with her and did the dirty, probably wont do it again, but im 175 and it is perfect,once laying down u feel like ur peeking out of a vagina and onlookers might mistake u for a blue bannana but its a great deal, hammock is about 9 foot long, and even on a breezey night i didnt flip over,only down side...no rain tarp(problem solved with a regular tarp) and like i said on a breezy night.....in a sub zero mummy bag the wind rips through that hammock into my bag and just my bum and my toes got cold (fixed with a thick blanket). good deal tho,im happy with it,lil spray paint and im in the jungle baby
