Hammocks have become a great alternative to tents for campers. Rather than being used for camping, hammocks are also commonly used for relaxation in the backyard. However, even with the current usage of hammocks, users still have some tough decisions to make. The choice of a hammock depends on where you want to camp and how many people you are going with. The weather and climate are also factors to consider.
The problem comes when the user does not know the type of hammock that best suits the occasion. The ENO Company has taken this into consideration and has produced six different types of hammocks. Depending on your weight, size, where you want to camp and whom you want to camp with, the choice of hammock is very important.
