Monkey Swing Ultralight hammock, 275 × 140 cm, 300 kg stated review

A hammock that publishes the width of its tree straps and the number of eyelets in them, and gives one 700 g figure without saying whether that hardware is inside it.

The bottom line Straps described down to their width and eyelet count, and a hammock fabric described with no number at all. The gaps here are unusual ones.

What this listing puts on record

A green and khaki gathered-end hammock in tear-resistant parachute silk, stated at 275 × 140 cm with triple seams, a stated 300 kg load, a stated weight of approximately 700 g, a stuff sack, two extra-wide tree straps at 2.5 cm with 11 openings each, and solid steel carabiners.

An unusual pattern of detail

Most listings here describe the hammock and wave at the suspension. This one does the reverse in places: the straps get a width — 2.5 cm — and an eyelet count of 11, while the hammock fabric gets called parachute silk and no number at all.

What is published

275 × 140 cm. A 300 kg stated load, with the maker stating two people can use it. 700 g, once, unlabelled.

What is missing

No denier and no thread count, so the fabric cannot be lined up against the 210T nylons elsewhere in the hub. No strap length, which is the figure that decides whether your trees are in range. No packed size for the supplied stuff sack. No ridgeline and no bug net.

Before ordering

The 700 g figure appears in the same sentence as the stuff sack and a different sentence from the straps and carabiners. Treat it as a bare-hammock number until the maker says otherwise.

What it does well, and where it gives way

Strengths

  • Publishes strap width at 2.5 cm and an eyelet count of 11, which is more detail than most suspensions carry here
  • 275 × 140 cm of body with a stated 300 kg load, and the maker states two people can use it
  • Steel carabiners are stated as supplied rather than sold on

Compromises

  • No denier and no thread count behind the words parachute silk, so the fabric is unquantified
  • One 700 g figure with no label, on a kit containing two straps and two steel carabiners
  • No strap length published, so the span between anchors cannot be worked out before it arrives

What people ask before buying

What is parachute silk here?

It is the maker's description of the fabric, and it comes with no denier and no thread count. Elsewhere in this hub the same class of material is quoted as 210T nylon, which is at least a number. Without either, the fabric column has nothing comparable in it.

Why does strap width get published and strap length not?

That is the listing's own choice, and it is an odd one. The 2.5 cm width tells you how the load sits against bark; the missing length is what tells you whether your two trees are close enough. Only one of those can be worked around after the parcel arrives.
