OutdoorGearLab scored the ENO DoubleNest 76 out of 100 and named it its Best Classic Everyday Double. The outlet describes a time-tested end-gathered design in rugged 70-denier nylon taffeta with triple-stitched seams and hammock-grade carabiners.

How they stack up

ENO DoubleNest

The DoubleNest's 400 lb capacity is below the 500 lbs of the Kammok Roo Double and the Wise Owl Outfitters Kit. OutdoorGearLab measured it at 31.0 oz with Atlas straps, against 24.0 oz for the Roo Double with straps. OutdoorGearLab scored its durability 8.0, above the Roo Double's 6.5. Like the Roo Double it comes without tree straps, which the Wise Owl kit includes, and it has no bug net, which the Warbonnet Ridgerunner builds in.

Warbonnet Ridgerunner

The Warbonnet Ridgerunner weighs 2 lbs 4.6 oz, above the 22.5 oz of the Wise Owl Outfitters Kit. Its weight capacity is 200 lb single-layered or 250 lb double, against 500 lb for the Wise Owl and the Kammok Roo Double and 400 lb for the ENO DoubleNest. It is the only hammock here with built-in bug netting, and it costs more than the other three.
