Wise Owl Outfitters Hammock Bug Net – Mosquito Net for Hammock, Lightweight Bug Netting for Camping, Hiking, Backpacking, Forest & Outdoor Use

Looks like it is a good system and good quality. Straight forward in setup. Bought the hammock, tarp and net and looking forward to using it.

I use this with my Wise Owl Outfitters Flare underquilt and Doubleowl hammock for both camping (backpacking and drive-in camp sites) and for sleeping in my back yard. This net accommodates a diagonal lay in my double hammock, but ends up with my outside elbow pressed against the mesh. Mosquitoes CAN bite through the mesh, so (after getting 17 bites at my elbow in one night) I make sure to line that edge of the hammock with a bit of sleeping bag or wear a sweatshirt. This net is far better than one attached to the top side of a hammock because I can sleep without a sleeping bag or underquilt without getting bitten through the bottom of the hammock.Set-up- Very easy. Just string the included line between the trees the hammock will hang from, hook the net, then feed the hammock ends through the ends of the net, from the inside. Tighten the draw-cords and you're done. At the height I hang things, the bottom of the net hits the ground, but I lay a bathmat underneath it to protect the net from the ground and where I leave my shoes at night. Leaving my shoes directly under the hammock protects them from dew. This net works both on trees of varying girths and distances, and on my hammock stand. The line that comes with the bug net is generously long, so it can handle quite a span if need be.Pack-up- If I'm not traveling, I leave the hammock inside the bug net and stuff both into a pillowcase to store with my camping gear. Rope for the net and tree straps for the hammock fit nicely into the bug net bag so they don't get tangled with the carabiners, and they don't get misplaced since the bag is attached to the net. For traveling, the net and rope fit easily into the attached bag, and the buckled strap can be used to compress the bag and attach it to a backpack.Durability- After a year of frequent use, the zipper still works perfectly and has only snagged on the mesh a handfull of times without causing any rips. I'm careful with it, though, so not sure how it would hold up in the hands of someone less cautious (i.e. a child or distracted teen). There are a few tiny pills in the body of the net, just from the friction of use and repeated packing/unpacking, but no holes. The hooks are all still securely attached and all the seams and stitching are intact.Improvements- It's really great as-is, and my suggestions would increase weight and size so maybe not appropriate for backpacking. It would be great to have a spreader bar at one end to keep the net off my elbow so I could sleep without a sleeping bag or sweatshirt on hot nights. I'd love to have a zipper on both sides, just for the sake of laziness and not having to think about which way the net is hung. A small, reinforced area in the "floor" might be nice to take shoes, and maybe a pet, inside the net, and also to protect the dangling edge from the ground.Aside from all that, I love this net. It's the best I've found so far, and the price is remarkably reasonable.

Great addition to our gear. This bug net definitely keeps those pesky bugs out, when fully zipped. Giving 4 stars because the zipper had an issue, but not a deal breaker for me. So nice for my girl and I to be able to hang out and not swat those gnats away. (see photo) We have other Wise Owl gear and use it all. The price was right, material seems sturdy, basic black is a good colour for this. Easy to hang, just remember to slide it around hammock first before hanging hammock.

Easy to put together, good quality, very useful to keep bugs, mosquitoes away while inside the hammock. Would recommend this product.

Works great with my enos doublenest, have only used it a couple of times but it seems to hold up just fine

Great for and (so & so far) doing the job as was intended

----------Update from my post below...After my original post Bella (Customer Service Manager from Wise Owl Outfitters) contacted me about the tear in the net. They provided me an apology... "I wanted to reach out to you and apologize for the bug net that you received from us. I see that you were having trouble with ripping from the net. This definitely should not have happened." They then also offered a refund and a replacement of the net.To me it is companies like this that are able to turn a situation around and make you feel good about their products again. Great customer service.----------I did a lot of research to find the right net for my Double Wise Owl Hammock. I decided to go with Wise Owl for the net as well as I really like the hammock. After I purchased it I tested it and it works like a dream exactly what I was looking for. This weekend I went for my 1st camp-out and it gave me the opportunity to test out the net. After I secured the hammock I put the net in place. I noticed a 2 inch tear in the net, I am not sure if it got hooked by something on the ground as I installed it but the tear was not there when I originally received it. I decided to use some duck tape to stop the tear from getting worse. Before I could get back to my hammock to put the duck tape on the net was ripped all the way lengthwise. It was the weight of the little bag that is attached to the net hanging at the bottom that caused it to tear further. So my issue here is that if you have the slightest tear in the net you cannot stop it from ripping end to end. This is a poor net design and it is super fragile.
