This hammock is just plain delightful for relaxing or sleeping! The new material is lighter and more supportive than anything I’ve tried before. As a 5’10” side sleeper, I can sleep the night in this hammock comfortably without any issues.
I've had this hammock for 8 years, taken to the Boundary Waters Canoe Wilderness several times. Set up at our permanent campground when I'm not hiking. I also own more expensive hammocks that just don't compare to the comfort of my Skeeter Beater. The more expensive ones are narrower and shorter than my GT making shoulder squish an issue. I couldn't imagine a better hammock especially for the price until I saw the Skeeter Beater XT... Might have to get that one too.
I’m aircrew on a C-17, so there are plenty of times where the only decent quality of sleep we get is on the aircraft. I’ve been able to use the hammock numerous times on the C-17 while traveling over the world, and it the comfort is second to none. I can guarantee that if the hammock is phenomenal on a cramped military cargo aircraft at 36,000 ft, a the hammock will do just fine on whatever adventure you want to take it on. 10 out of 10
