Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was dead set on getting an ENO hammock, until I read the great raving reviews of the lesser named brands here from Amazon.
I also found that once you start outfitting an ENO hammock with things like bug nets they get very pricey. So I found the Skeeter Beeter.
It was a little bit of a stab having not read any reviews on it, but the price was right and the quality seemed to be there.
The hammock is very comfortable, and made of really nice materials (parachute material for the hammock, and almost like a silk for the bug-net...no cheap-o stuff here).
My only complaints are (and I'm not really sure they're complaints, just things I wish I kn ew before buying), the size of this thing is pretty big for 1 person. 400# capacity doesn't give enough of a description, but I'm 6'1" at 185lbs and I get swallowed by this thing. I wish it was about 10% less wide.
The other thing was the bug-net...cool setup, but it does not come off...not possible to remove. There's a zipper which runs about 90% the length of 1 side, but cannot be peeled back and removed. Not a complaint per se, but I wish I knew these things before-hand

There's no better way to ruin a camping trip than to get eaten alive by mosquitoes. Enter the Skeeter Beeter Pro hammock, which is not only light enough to appeal to fast-moving adventurers, but also offers shelter from nature's most unsavory critters. Combining all the great features of the original Skeeter Beeter hammock but made with Travel Hammock's super-strong parachute nylon material, the hammock is a must for camping trips near lakes or in damp forests.The hammock's parachute nylon silk construction is tough and long lasting, with a weight capacity of 400 pounds--150 pounds more than the original Skeeter Beeter. More significantly, the hammock offers an attached no-see-um mosquito net mesh lid with a double-sided zipper for easy in and out. As a result, it's easy to protect yourself from nasty bugs and pesky crawlers while you snooze.
The Skeeter Beeter Pro comes with an easy overhead net suspension system that sets up in a matter of minutes, along with a free hammock hanging system that includes two 10-foot pieces of pre-knotted hanging rope and attached S-hooks. Other details include a mildew-resistant, quick-dry design, two interior pockets for gear storage, and an attached stuff sack for transport. The Skeeter Beeter Pro measures 10.5 by 5 feet, weighs 27 ounces, and carries a 10-year warranty.
