Just got one on the back of this video.. I use a bungee chord each side from the middle o the arched poles on the inner to tension out the bug mesh inner. It taughts it up nice and then the inner doesnt sag when inside. Take it to the same caribiner point for the outer flysheet. It also creates a nice ridge for the outer flysheet too.. Great hammock tent. Good video.
Cheers for the feedback mate! I will give that a go! Have fun in your new hammock! ⛺️
I got one of these this week. Yet to spend a night in the thing, wondering if you have and was it comfortable.
@@rickystephenson518 I’ve spent multiple nights in it and I love it!😻

Yer I did catch your derwent lake camp after this one. Looks good. Heading up there next bank holidays 👍
Great video
Thanks!
This looks cool. Although i would move the toggles for the door in 3 inches. Shame that there is no zip at the foot/head end to use as storage and a second door. May be this will happen on the MKII.
Yes 100% they need moving in - that’s the most annoying part about this hammock
Nice. Hope it works out for ya. I like everything about it, except maybe the curve. The straps going around the tree to stabilize it is a nice feature. Also, the poles that elevate the ceiling is another nice feature and enables having a rain fly instead of a tarp.
Thank you, yes I agree with your comments. I also like the fact it’s like a floating tent! With the poles holding the big net up giving you that spacious room. The straps around the tree do stabilise it but after using this hammock a few times now you should be careful it can still tip
Really good video - really helped, thanks (liked & subbed) Also, to me it looks like you would be able to set it up as a standard tent on the ground if there were no trees available? If so, this would really make it even more versatile and surely another great feature.
very yes you can...........v straightforward
Hi Jason, yes this can be done mate and is actually made to do it that way also
Good vid.new sub...I prefer a gathered end hammock myself alot less complicated,but that looks alright.....
100%! I had another hammock but it was to much messing around to set it up, I like the fact it’s easy to put up, thanks for the sub appreciate it 🤙🏼
Good overview. One of the only ones that actually bought it with your own money - always skeptical with people that get stuff for free. Ordered one for a motorcycle trip, hopefully it's as good as it sounds. Cheers!
I buy all my own equipment mate, I’m not on UA-cam for paid reviews I’m happy with trying to provide overall views of products at a lower cost
Hope you have a fantastic motorcycle trip! Where are you going?
Nice video mate 👌🏻 the hammock looks shocking though far to much going on. Atb Wullie ✊🏻🏴
Cheers pal, appreciate it… I know all the straps look Abit messy… but I can’t get on with tarps and stuff 👀😂
@@wildbadgertrek gave ya a sub to lad ✊🏻🏴
Great video. Looks good thinking of getting one would you recommend it
100% mate it’s a great setup
Good video mate. I like the idea of the hammock, but the cover looks a bit of a compromise. I would be tempted to use a normal tarp over it. 🤔
Thanks pal, yes I know what you mean. Since my camp at derwent waters though, that fly sheet kept the heat in very well. I feel that a tarp comprises you to the cold a little more.
For sure you could use a normal tarp over this… especially if it’s nice and hot!
Thanks for this video. I'm wondertjng how it performs in a heavy rain. Also, is the flor water proof? And how is the condensation in the tent set up? Thanks.
Hello, it’s been in heavy rain and was perfect, the fly sheet covers right over the bottom of the hammock so no water actually touches the bottom unless you use it as a bivvi which I haven’t done. Also no condensation there’s plenty of air flow
I'd like to see how it works out as a tent on the ground in cold weather.
works well. Think of it as a bivvy...........
Did ya make a follow up on the night cat hammock !!
I certainly did, check out ua-cam.com/video/ltMb-wD05d0/v-deo.htmlsi=jAEse2YXSKXIG3qP
Any update on the hammock as I’m tempted to buy one
Hi mate, not yet our trip is set for this month I will update once I have tested it - sorry that there’s no update yet
@@wildbadgertrek I’ll hold off till the follow up video then. 👍 I’ve tried hammock camping before and just didn’t get on with it up this setup maybe the answer.
@@stephenjohnson3520 Hi Stephen the video is now uploaded :)
@@wildbadgertrek Thanks for that, seems like the hammock worked well.
Whutcha doing fer insulation?
Hi bud this was just an over view of the hammock… my next task is to sort insulation out 😆
@@wildbadgertrek lookin ferwerd ta seein where ya go from here fer shure.
Hi ya, I have a different Night Cat hammock and really happy with it. However, this new design goes look really good. Thanks for the detailed overview and set up. 😊
@@ramblingracheltrailtales thank you! It’s so comfy in well impressed with it
Can this be used as a regular banana hammock?
Yes it can pal
@@wildbadgertrek How? By turning them upside down like the non-flat Night Cat hammock and by removing the two poles?
@@CynicusRexI’d leave the poles in bud to keep it wide
is this thing suitable for people of 190 cm?
100% yes I’m 6ft1 and there’s plenty of room
Please don't take this wrong. Big tree's is not what you want to set up a hammock with. First. The straps are normally to short. Second. And most importantly. There is not much between you and them big dead branches above you. Thoe the view must be great.
Cheers mate, this video was just for an overall view of the hammock I didn’t camp here. However I totally agree with your concern and great advice for those who watch this video!
Cheers Aaron :)
Got mine direct from night cat and it's coming from Amazon anyway 2 day delivery so 💯 don't buy of Amazon
