ENO Eagles Nest DoubleNest Hammock Review

Comfort

With a Comfort score of 8.6 (the template label: Roomy and relaxing), ENO designed the DoubleNest to feel more like a place to lie than a hammock you tolerate. The bed measures 114.2 x 75.6 in, which is long enough for full-body lounging and wide enough that two people are not forced into one tight footprint.

The material matters too. This model uses nylon, and in real lounging, that translates into a surface that does not feel overly stiff. It also avoids the grabby texture that can make adjustment hard once you settle in. ENO rates the hammock for 1 to 2 persons with a stated 400 lb capacity, so the intended use case lines up well with how the fabric lays when you are not over-stuffing the bed.

Comfort does dip if you are close to the upper end of the weight limit. With any hammock, sag and angle change as load increases. Here, the hammock still feels stable in the middle, but you get less margin for “spread out and forget it” comfort if you need more support than the stated limit allows.

Durability

Durability earns a 8.6 score (template: Hardware stays rust-free). The reason is straightforward. ENO uses a suspension setup that relies on carabiners and compatible straps, and the system is designed to take outdoor exposure without quick hardware failure. The hammock body uses nylon, which tends to handle camping use better than more delicate fabrics when you fold, store, and hang it repeatedly.

On paper, the hammock is rated for 400 lb, and the dimensions are consistent at 114.2 x 75.6 in. That matters because durability is not only fabric strength. It is also how the hammock distributes tension across the bed. When the load sits across a larger area, the fabric can age more evenly than it would in a narrower design.

Where you should stay realistic is long-term care. Nylon does not like constant wet storage. If you leave it damp after a rainy camp, mildew becomes the real enemy, not stitching or hardware. This is not unique to ENO, but it is the difference between “still great after the season” and “needs replacement sooner than it should.”

Setup

Setup lands at a 8.2 score (template: Easy tensioning and tweaks). The DoubleNest uses carabiners and straps for suspension, so you can fine-tune where the hammock sits. That means you can adjust the angle for less pressure on your back or for a more relaxed lay, instead of accepting one default hang height.

In practice, setup starts with finding two anchor points and then managing tension through the straps and carabiners. Because the hammock bed is 114.2 x 75.6 in, small changes in strap length and attachment height can noticeably change how the hammock cups around you. That gives you room to dial in comfort without needing a complicated rig.

Be aware of what is not in the package. The hammock itself weighs about 1.2 lb, but the stand is not included. You can still hang it between trees, but if you do not already have the right suspension parts, you may spend time tracking down what you need. That affects the “quick install” feeling even when the hang method is straightforward.

Portability

Portability scores a strong 8.6 (template: Lightweight and travel-ready). The hammock weight is listed at 1.2 lb, which is light enough for camping days where you move often. It also means the hammock does not become a bulky burden in a pack.

The key portability trade-off comes from what you pair it with. The hammock is 1 to 2 persons sized, but it is also not a complete freestanding kit. The stand is listed as not included, so travel becomes either tree-based or you add gear. If your campsites often lack solid anchor points, portability becomes more about the full system, not just the hammock body.

Still, for hikes and car camping where you can locate trees, this is the kind of hammock weight that stays easy to justify. The nylon fabric also folds down for storage more like a simple textile than a structured bed.

Value

Value earns a 8.1 score (template: Decent, but overpriced is the closest fit given the trade-offs). The comfort and size make the product easy to understand: 114.2 x 75.6 in is a roomy bed, and the stated capacity is 400 lb. For a hammock aimed at two people, those numbers support the “real lounging” goal better than cramped designs.

However, the value equation shifts because the system is not complete. The stand is listed as not included, and you may need separate suspension parts depending on what you already own. The drawback list also flags “Separate suspension cost” and “Stand not included”, which are not small details if you plan to use it away from trees.

So the best way to think about value here is fit. If you already have ENO-compatible straps and carabiner-ready anchor solutions, you get a hammock that feels livable. If you do not, you will likely spend time and money filling in the missing pieces before you get to the comfort that drives the higher scores.
