Haven Tent XL - Forest Camo - Complete Lay-Flat Hammock Tent for Camping - Includes Insulated Pad and Rainfly - 80"x30"

Haven did a great job with these. I have this regular one and a Safari model. It is definitely as close to a flat sleep as one can likely get. Good protection and while I haven't done it, can be used on the ground with two poles or sticks as a tent of sorts. Of course, it has a ridgeline, so if using a stand, ensure it works with hammocks with one and therefore a lot of droop. I do wish this one was wider. I have wide shoulders and big chest for a short guy and feel a bit cramped side-to-side.

W najnowszej wersji Haven XL ma poprawione zamki, teraz leżąc w środku można bez problemu zapiąć moskitierę. W poprawionej wersji dostępny jest lounge strap, taki jak w wersji Safari. Materac jest bardzo ciepły, w lato jest na nim gorąco.

La présentation m'a conquit avant l'achat. J'utilise le hamac en bivouac, depuis quelques années. Ce mode de nuitée me plait, mais je ne trouve pas mon compte pour une nuit de repos totale. Suite à la livraison, j'ai fait un essai dans le jardin. le bivouac sera quand la météo sera plus favorable. C'est révolutionnaire ! La facilité et rapidité de montage (et de démontage - rangement), un tarp, une moustiquaire, un matelas pour être vraiment allongé. J'ai fais une sieste à l'abri, et sans quasiment pas de courant d'air, du bonheur. J'ai très hâte de le tester en condition réelle de nuitée.

Just received my Haven XL. We did a cool video review in our front yard. We did it without the use of the video guide or instructions to see just how out of the box user friendly it was, and again after watching the guide. This setuo took us about 10-15mins,most of it being the inflation of the mat. The sack it comes in is like are large airbag and works better blowing into it from a few inches away to maximize the air volume into it to speed up the inflation process. Decently recommend doing the rain fly portion before the mat to reduce the weight when clipping it into the carabiner. After watching the guide video, I dont intend on removing the rainfall so it will be rolled up already pre setup to speed up the setup at camps. I will be using this for a 192 mile kayak camp so will update if the product not tough enough in the field use of it. Overall the comfort level is through the roof on the lay flat system and sleep pad. I liked the fact you can raise it up to a reclining position. It was pretty 85 degrees and raining when started, then got really humid when setting it up. With the rain fly laid down, it got really hot inside, but that was understandable to keep the rain out. Mosquitos came out really quick and the netting did a good job of keep them out of the sleeping area. So far really excited to use it on the trip.

I understand this was a kickstarter project originally and they have an innovative design that I appreciate. I'm on the fence as to whether or not I'll keep this. Certainly too heavy for back packing for me when compared to my Hennessy and Warbonnet hammocks. I'll give you some of my nitpicks and things I really like. Pros: Overall shape/design: If you ever get on hammock forums to research camping hammocks the first question everyone asks is "what if there's nowhere to hang, what if I have to go to ground?" In this case....the answer is "nothing", just set it up like a pup tent. Fabric: Appears to be good quality. Maybe a bit heavier than needed for the fly and parts of the hammock body but I'm looking at this more from the perspective of a car/kayak camper. The pad alone is too heavy to make this a viable backpacking option for most people I think. Pockets!!!! Probably my favorite thing behind the comfort. Lots of places to squirrel away your headlamp, phone, etc once you're inside the hammock. It would also be simple enough to add some hanging storage to the ridgeline much like the Hennessy. Cons: Suspension: Not a fan of the ladder-strap setup. It's "simple" but not terribly easy to use or adjust. I'd prefer whoopie slings, straps/buckles or something else. Both of those other options being lighter as well. The straps are very short so that also limits your hanging options. And.....the included carabiners are junk. They're the cheapest steel biners I think I've ever seen with lots of little sharp edges and burrs just waiting to tear a hole in the fly or elsewhere. I'll be swapping those out immediately and maybe the whole suspension setup. Adding a 2nd light weight biner means I'll be able to leave the complete suspension/tarp attached to the hammock, but still be able to quickly attach the ends to trees. Netting/zippers: Being that I always camp when/where there are bugs, being able to remove the netting is of little to no benefit to me. Therefore....having a double-pull zipper setup makes much more sense. This way the zippers would end up in the middle of the hammock when it's zipped shut, rather than one end. For those of us getting older, reaching down to our feet or beyond our head to reach the pulls when nature calls is a hassle. They should also include some reflective zipper pulls to make finding them in the dark a bit easier. Even some of the reflective guyline included would work....but orange/chartreuse much better. Pad: Comfortable, but very heavy. The bag-pump is a little fidgety but after a little practice will work well I think. I didn't experience the foot pump design but that seems to have gone away in the current model. Tarp: A little small but I believe it will do the job. I'm a little confused on the method to connect it to the hammock body. Some videos show running the support carabiners through some reinforced slots in the ends. But....there's also a webbing loop and some smaller cheap carabiners included. The instructions are very limited so I'm watching a bunch of review videos for more information. Even their website is pretty lacking. Several other reviewers indicate the fly leaks at the points where the webbing loops are sewn on for tying back the sides. I haven't been in the wet yet to report but that does seem likely. Ventilation: The no-seeum mesh is great to keep out the critters, but doesn't so much as let a puff of air through. I was laying in a park with gusts of wind that were shaking the trees and hammock body, yet couldn't feel it at all through the mesh. Great for the cold months, not so good for summer trips. The end vents in the hammock body seem kind of a waste for this reason as well. I think they could simplify the design, delete those, and maybe reduce the cost a bit. Nitpicks: Stakes....use the "Y" style rather than the shepherds hooks. They hold much better in soft sand and are stronger. The guy lines are kind of overkill but work OK. Packaging: The stuff sack link with the flap to connect the pad is very gimmicky. It's nice to keep them together but very unnecessary. The stakes should have their own small bag just to keep from dragging sand/mud into the rest of the setup when you're packing everything away. Assuming you keep the tarp connected to the hammock body when packing up there's no need for the other medium sized stuff sack included, nor the elastic bands. Marketing: The website is big on sales, small on information. That will likely change as time goes on.
