Review:
Hennessey Hammocks
There are many companies now that have produced hammocks for sleeping systems instead of tents. For those of us who do not normally sleep on their backs, we doubted we would find one that would be comfortable. Hennessy Hammocks have a size and weight for every purpose, a complete line of specialty hammocks, including jungle hammocks, winter hammocks, and hammock accessories.
All Hennessy Hammocks include attached mosquito netting, detachable rain fly, support ropes, tree huggers to protect the bark of trees, and stuff sack with set up Instructions on back.
The Hennessy Hammock has a patented rectangular shape on the floor to allow comfortable side sleeping. Still doubting the comfort, we set the hammock up. We went with the hammock that will hold someone up to 250 pounds since one of our testers weighs 230. We also got the thermo padding.
For those of us who are not very coordinated, we really appreciated being able to get in from the bottom and sitting down first. The self closer added to the ease in getting situated.
We tried the hammock in many conditions, from sun to pounding rain and slept like babies. We woke up refreshed with our backs feeling great, realizing that our whole body was supported in each sleeping position. We found it very enjoyable to sit and read without having the mosquitoes biting.
Although we can’t beat the record for quick set up by the scouts, the hammock was easy to set for one person and the directions are printed on the bag so they can’t be lost- how clever! In meeting with Tom Hennessy, we see a commitment to continually improve his system.
