Night Cat Flat Lay Hammock Tent with Mosquito Net Waterproof Rainfly Storage Room for 1 Person Backpacking Hiking Camping Lightweight 440LBS

Really comfortable and easy set-up

Son loves it and that is all that matters! A bit more $$ than I was wanting to spend, so hoping it is worth it in the long run. We are hoping he will take it out soon and give it a "live trial" for camping, hiking and back country hunting in the Montana and Colorado mountains. He says it will definitely be more comfortable than a "cheaper" hammock. Weight is a little more then he was expecting which throws off his pack weight. Unsure of the durability at this time, hoping it lasts awhile. Assembly was ok, a bit awkward but maybe once he gets more used to it and comes up with what works best for him, it will get easier and fast. It is a tent, ultimately, so warmth is not an "option" but he has a great light weight, deep freeze bag so should be good to go. LOVES the under storage, however, we have excessive bear counts near us, so stringing up is 1st line of avoidance and non-edible storage underneath.

I have friends who told me about using hammock tents but I wasn't thrilled by the idea of having sway-back all night trying to sleep. Then I found this. I've slept in this roughly 30 nights by now and I sing its praises to anyone who will listen. Everyone who sees it is enthralled by it and I love to show it off and explain it to people. It packs up small enough that it fits in the saddle bag of my motorcycle or I bring it in my pack on canoe trips. It takes a bit of time to set up and tear down, mostly just ensuring everything fits nicely into the bag, and it's a bit of a learning curve to get a consistent setup. There are ways to ensure it feels more stable. I actually bought and added two additional straps that I can daisy-chain onto the included lower straps so I can a) put it between trees that are further apart and b) do a full wrap of each tree - this provides greater stability. I'm 6'4" and 250lbs and the tent supports me well. The gear channel below the tent is brilliant, keeps everything off the ground and dry and it holds a lot. It has a ring inside that you can hang your lamp from if you're reading. It's stable and easy to get in and out of for me. The fly keeps it dry but it could use a bit better of a design to accommodate non-ideal set-ups. If the top straps are on too great of an upward angle or the trees are close together, you can't get the fly taught enough. The support bars that make it lay-flat are showing signs of permanent curvature but I'm not concerned about failure. I put a thin inflatable mattress pad in it under my sleeping bag which provides good insulation. I wake up in the morning feeling like I just slept in my bed. You can sleep on your back or either side...no stomach sleeping though. Love, love, love this tent. Highly recommended.

Weighing 3.2 pounds, it has an amazing functionality, and you can sleep anywhere. No need defined flat ground. Assembly takes about 10 minutes and once you get good at. It takes around 5, although on the pricier side, it's well worth the money and has good value. As I've taken this across the world camped with it in New Zealand and Australia, and it never ripped held up beautifully. The weight was a little heavy for backpacking, but I was able to do it with four months on the trail, so it wasn't too bad.

I have used my Nightcat Flatlay Hammock numerous times through the 2023 and 2024 camping seasons, and I definitely like it. I'm 6'2", 275lbs, and this thing supports me very well, even with a 75lb Pitty onboard, it feels very secure. I have purchased the underquilt for winter camping, and an offbrand tarp and poles just for extra rain projection. As it comes, I have not gotten wet, yet. I would suggest: Once one circles the tree with the lower straps, cross them over, so left strap goes to right side, right strap goes to left side. it definitely adds extra rigidity to prevent/eliminate any feelings of "flipping over" or "falling out". Fantastic sleep system. WARNING: like all tents, it is NOT flame proof, so embers from camp fires will make holes, Gorilla Tape and Super Glue are your best friends here. (Other reason for the extra tarping) I recommend this product.
