Is a hammock tent worth it? Haven Tent review #campinggear

CAMPING TENT SET UP
Pros vs cons of hammock camping ⤵️

I have the Heven tent with the ultralight rainfly. Opinions are my own. Not spon.

PROS
• Lays flat and comes with an extra wide insulated sleeping pad (4 R value)
• Great for side sleepers and I assume anyone with knee or back pain who can’t crawl into a tent
• It’s relatively affordable for a sleep system at $315 USD (tent+pad)
• Rain tarp is highly adjustable and can close from inside the hammock if the weather takes a turn
• If there’s no trees around you can pitch it on the ground as a Bivy using trekking poles or sticks

CONSiderations
• Can’t fit large dogs (sorry Kyro)
• It is 6 lbs 8oz (which is a pound or 2 heavier than my backpacking sleep system setup
• You can keep your bag inside but it was more comfortable outside under the tarp
•Works best with included mattress, the Nemo insulated tensor sleeping pad I have didn’t work because the sides caved in
• Make sure your head side is hung higher than the feet side and your butt is in the middle so your not slanted downwards
