ENO DoubleNest Hammock vs Kammok Roo Double

Which is the better buy? Side-by-side on rating, price, strengths, and watch-outs — with the published ratings we averaged to get there.

The short answer

Kammok Roo Double comes out ahead by a narrow margin (4.5 vs 4.6). The gap is mostly about Campers who want the best-reviewed end-gathered hammock with premium fabric and hardware, and don't mind buying straps separately. — read the strengths below before deciding.

Ranked #2 in Best Portable Hammocks

ENO DoubleNest Hammock

4.5

$74.95as of Jun 7

The ENO DoubleNest is the everyday classic, a tried-and-true two-person hammock with triple-stitched 70D nylon, upgraded hammock-rated hardware, and a 400-pound capacity. OutdoorGearLab recommends it for everyday use and GearJunkie rates it 8.5/10. It's spacious enough for two and packs to the size of a sleeping pad. The main knock: the durable fabric isn't as soft as some rivals.

Strengths

— Tried-and-true everyday design sold in numerous colors
— Triple-stitched 70D nylon taffeta with upgraded hammock-rated carabiners
— Spacious 8'9" x 6'3" canopy fits one cocooned or two relaxing

Watch-outs

— Crinkle-treated fabric still isn't as soft as the Kammok Roo or TrunkTech
— 400-pound capacity trails the 500-pound budget doubles here
— Straps often sold separately depending on the bundle

Higher ratedRanked #1 in Best Portable Hammocks

Kammok Roo Double

4.6

$94.95as of Jun 7

The Roo Double is OutdoorGearLab's highest-scoring end-gathered hammock, pairing a buttery 40D recycled ripstop fabric with a 500-pound capacity, eight gear loops, and climbing-rated Kanga Claw carabiners. At 17 ounces of fabric it packs to the size of a peanut-butter jar. The catches: suspension straps cost extra, and the recycled fabric shows wear against rough bark.

Strengths

— Top-scoring end-gathered hammock in OutdoorGearLab's 22-hammock test
— Soft, breathable, water-resistant 40D GravitasX recycled ripstop fabric
— 500-pound capacity with climbing-rated Kanga Claw carabiners

Watch-outs

— Suspension straps are sold separately, adding to the cost
— Recycled fabric showed some wear rubbing against tree bark
— $95 is pricier than budget doubles like the Wise Owl or Kootek
