GRAND TRUNK Mozzy Lite Hammock Bug Net - Mosquito Protection with Hanging System & J-Zipper for Easy Access

Great bugnet. I used it backpacking in the shawnee national forest. Bought it so my dog who hates hanmocks can sleep under me and still be protected from insects and snakes.I also had plenty of space to store my gear even with the dog in there. Lots of ticks and spiders where I was at so I wasn't keen on keeping my bag and shoes outside in the open knowing past experiences doing that not going so well. This bugnet was a great solution. It fit my dutchware gear 11' hammock with room to spare, should accommodate just about any gathered end hammock. Also you do not need to use the spreader bars or even the stakes with this if you want to save some weight.The pros:Great designSpreader bars keep the net off youEasy to set up (I really like the tensioner system this has for attaching to trees)Decent lightweight stakesNice and spaciousBathtub floor is large but not too large that you need to be concerned about it sticking out from under your tarp and filling with water.Nice zipperLoops inside for hanging thingsThe spreader bars seem light and sturdyThe cons:It's a bit heavy for backpacking at 2lbs (but you have to compromise here, it's basically a tent without a rain fly.) But, it's just about the best solution I've found for hammock camping with dogs.One of the spreader bars did not fit until after I cut some of the sticthing. Minor problem and easily fixed but I shouldn't have had to make a repair right out of the box.Overall, nice product and I will most likely continue using it even though it's on the heavy side. Really depends on the trip. But I'll definitely use it especially for car camping and short backpacking trips. And on canoe camping trips this bug net would be coming with for sure. The price ($75) is very fair for this product in my opinion.

loved it, but the spreader bars do need a deeper pocket because they would come out so i taped them

Grand Trunk Mozzy 360:I continue to be impressed with Grand Trunk products. Recently I've started using a bug net full time because for some reason, though I haven't actually seen a fly in years, recently I've had three inside. At first I put on a net from another manufacturer which is kind of form fitting and fits around the hammock and hangs from the ridge line. The zipper for that one was parallel to the hammock and slightly below the side of the hammock. It was okay, but it was too close and I felt like I stressed the zipper every time I got in or out. Another thing; I use this sleeping under a ceiling fan, but I really don't feel much breeze through it the net is so fine. It could get a little stuffy in there by morning. Oh, and it got even more crowded when I tried to use my under quilt inside the net. I wound up putting it outside the net for reasons more complicated than I will state here. Anyway, unsatisfied, I started to do some research and I am glad I did.This net - like all of my Grand Trunk products - is very generous. In fact, I have this thing stretched along to completely enclose my hammock and ridge line on my frame which, when taut is 12'-7" long and 4'-9" tall! Now I have access to my ridge line inside the net which is super useful.Also, and importantly, I no longer feel like the zipper will fail or the net will fail when I get in or out of it! I can get myself in the net completely, zip it up and then get in the hammy. It has spreader bars on top which keep it off of you. It's black, so outside you would be able to see stars if they were out. It's very roomy so I think it will be better with the stuffiness problem. Even if it's not, this thing is so roomy I could probably put a fan inside with me! :-DI would like to see the opening a little more centered. I mean, the vertical part of the J zipper is right in the middle, so the horizontal part is (for me because I have to have the opening on one particular side) more toward the foot of the rig rather than the middle. Not worth a ding and I will get used to it. In any event, it is far superior to what I had before.Thank you Grand Trunk! Keep up the great work!

It's a great size for changing, bringing a dog or two, and not worrying about bugs biting through the mesh. At 2 lbs it's heavy for serious backpacking unless you're splitting the load with a dog. On the plus side, that is due to the more robust materials used, especially for the floorSetup is very easy except that the spreader poles are a very tight fit, and I wonder if one day I'll rip the fabric while trying to squeeze them in. I'll probably cut a little off both of them for longevity and easy.The stakes are nothing special, but they're definitely adequate for the job.This is my new go-to net for car camping, kayak camping, and short backpacking overnighters.Side note: The product description stated in multiple places the weight as 20 oz instead of 32 oz, so when I brought this to grand trunk's attention they gave me a small refund. You have to appreciate good customer service.

Upon opening I noticed Grand Trunk has a lifetime warranty, I thought that must mean good quality, apparently I was wrong. I set this up and initially it does work as a place to keep your gear or have your dog with you while you hammock camp. But there were several loose threads where you put the poles, loose threads and broken stitches around the doors, and a broken plastic clip on a guy-line. My pictures are of the poor stitching quality. Obviously bugs can get in through that, so the mesh would remain pointless in a buggy area. I wanted to like this but am concerned for it's structural integrity and longevity. I can't recommend spending your money on this. It seems below dollar store value if I'm being honest. All I can hope is that this was something that slipped by quality control.Edit after summer of 2023: I actually feel ripped off that I bought this, it should be discontinued. Tried using it camping in Northern Maine, could not keep bugs out at all, and the poles would not stay in to actually keep the "tent" up. Long story short, I had to sleep in my car and it was not comfortable.
