Review: Seattle where the rain never sleeps - After reading the many reviews of the Hennessy and watching you tube videos I had come to the conclusion that this was the tent for me. I own 4 tents. 2 that leak when it rains and 2 that I spent a whole bunch of money for. I have camped on my own deep in the woods for months. I WISH I HAD ONE OF THESE YEARS AGO! Last night I took it out of the bag, set it up in what seemed to be 2 min. It was fast and simple. I put my cold weather bag in it and down came the rain. It rained all night. I am guessing the temp was in the low 40s F. The wind blew hard yet I was warm, dry and very comfortable. What a great product. I plan on buying 10 more( I have a lot of family and friends). As a survivalist this tent just makes sense. Its perfect for your Bug Out Bag. Its small, lite, bug repellent, easy to use, well made, and water resistant. I watched a video of a guy who hung his off the side of a rock face where there where no trees. I have seen them hung in between trucks, off of fences, rocks, hiking poles with guide wires and stakes. I even saw one hung in a hole with the rain fly covering the hole. Now that is inconspicuous camping. Oh yea. The whole cold weather thing I haven't tried yet BUT the pad they sell is a aluminum bubble wrap insulation that you can buy big rolls of at home depot for 20$s. I use this stuff all the time in my work and it is great insulation. One roll would make a 3 layer thick insulation pad 4ft by 6ft. Reflective insulation is far better then any other form of insulation. I will post my cold weather findings when I camp in the snow. On the other hand this thing will rock in hot weather. I am sold. I am a believer. Best night sleep I have ever had in a tent by far!
Review: Great for camping! (duh) - Even in camping grounds, where there usually aren't 2 trees of appropriate distance, I tied one end to a tree and the other to the rollcage of my Jeep. The netting kept all the bugs out, and the tarp kept the morning dew (and a late night sprinkle) off of me! It was also a pretty comfortable sleep. I'm 6'3", about 215lbs and it held me no problems - plenty of extra head and foot room. When you really think about it, the price is still a great value - it's a shelter/tent, crashpad/mattress, and pillow all in one! and it packs up wicked small, so there's no space being taken up by the extra tent and sleeping stuff. Long story short - very comfortable to sleep in, no bugs or rain inside, pouch to hold keys/phone etc inside tent. I would easily buy this again should a significant other come into my life and want to go camping too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great hammock, horrible fly.
*by C***7 on March 27, 2013*

The hammock itself is terrific, its very comfortable and easy to setup (on small trees) on the other hand the rain fly that they include is absolute crap. I bought this for a camping trip out in the Florida keys, it would've been great if it didn't rain. the fly does not keep much rain out and if wind happens to catch under it flips the fly up and renders it useless. I would recommend getting a better fly from Hennessy to go with it.
