Provisional scores. Built from published specs and broad review consensus while hands-on testing is underway. How we score.
What we like
- ✅Single layer: 250 lb comfort range, 300 lb max load, 19 oz with net top and stuff sack
- ✅Heavyweight double version rated to 400 lb at 29 oz
- ✅Footbox and storage shelf, built in the USA
Watch out for
- ⚠️Base price ships with continuous loops only; usable suspension is a $20 to $45 add-on
- ⚠️Costs about 2.5x a DoubleNest before tarp and insulation
