Hi all,
i'm not sure if anyone has come across the kickstarter for the new 2-in-1 hammock tent? It can either be used on the ground or as a hammock.

What do all the hammock tent users out there think of it?
I'm only new to the hammock tent world... so im not too sure

Looks interesting, but I feel like you end up with so many compromises, its a heavy hammock, expensive tent, trying to be all things to all people is an attractive idea, but rarely works in practice. they may have cracked it, but it would be a first.

I think it is a really nice design but it would work better as a tent than a hammock. It is short and narrow which most likely would not be that comfortable, and I assume it used the tent floor material for that hammock which most likely will result in condensation issues and feel clammy in warm weather.

Disclaimer: I make and sell hammocks so have some obvious bias.
