Ohuhu Nylon Hammock - Review
Up for review is the strong and inexpensive Ohuhu Nylon Hammock.
Colors: Blue and Orange
$17.99
They offer hammock straps for $9.99
LINK : http://www.amazon.com/Ohuhu-Portable-Camping-600-Pound-Capacity/dp/B00VTGNCPO/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1445463854&sr=8-2&keywords=ohuhu+hammock
Crafted with 100% high strength breathable nylon fabric, which is light, quick drying, strong, mildew resistant, machine washable, and so silky soft and comfortable.

Easy to pack and storage, it is easily folded and fits into an integrated pocket with 8.5" x 5" x 5" of folding size
Maximum support weight: 600lbs, which accommodates up to two adults.
The hammock is equipped with hook holder for easy & convenient use.

Eagles Nest JungleNest. There is a noticeable quality difference, but the ENO is a $100 hammock. That this competes at all at a fifth of the price is remarkable. Overall, it seems just as functional, if not quite as nice. If you have doubts about hammocking or don't want to invest a lot of money, this is far from a bad option.
This is the perfect hammock to test the waters with. Meaning if you are thinking of doing some hammock camping but you’re not sure if it’s really for you, this is a very good place to start.

Yukon Outfitters V1 Freedom Hammock
This is the Yukon Outfitters V1 Freedom Hammock.
Link : http://www.amazon.com/Yukon-Outfitters-Freedom-Double-Hammock/dp/B00PBGA1K2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1445457655&sr=8-1&keywords=yukon+freedom+hammock
Price: $54. on Amazon
$80 on the Yukon Web Site
Made in the USA
Colors: coyote black Drab
Dimensions: 119" L x 60" W
Weight: 10.4 oz.
Weight Capacity: 300 lbs.
Seamless single panel construction
Mil-Spec parachute nylon
Innovative heavy duty 1" nylon loops incorporate double box X stitching for clipping or attaching to tree straps, whoopie slings, or anchor points
Extremely lightweight
Reinforced ends and hems
Made in USA
No Seams
You will need a suspension system, this does not even come with carabiners.
Military grade parachute nylon
I like that it is a seamless design here, not that it matters too much, but if you can eliminate a seam, especially one on which you find yourself lying, it can't be a bad thing.
There is a Version 2 of this hammock called the V2 and it will support up to 500lbs
Cons : does not include the tree straps but at this price, no hammock does that I know of.
No straps.
No ropes and that is disappointing.
Eagles Nest Outfitters Slap Strap, Set of 2 is a good set of straps if you are interested
