We actually have a large, comfortable cotton hammock (Amazonas Barbados). For the holidays with tent and backpack that is but just too big and too heavy. That is why we have ordered for the last holiday that Silk Traveller and were surprised really positively when unpacking. You do not need more space than a simple raincoat and is really lightweight. The pack bag is sewn to the sides of the hammock, so you do not lose it and if it is in the hammock, you can store his cell phone or a small book there.
When we have suspended the first time, we were a bit skeptical whether it really helps the 150kg indicated, the substance is already quite thin. But actually, we were always in pairs in it (together 140kg) and nothing happened.
Of course it is not quite as cozy as a cotton hammock, but it is so light that you can always take without hesitation. For the price an absolute recommendation!
