Newly Updated Lighter Design for 2026.
The Warbonnet Eldorado is the Blackbird XLC’s lighter more frugal cousin. The Eldorado and XLC are both built from the same hammock body, the only difference being the netting. The Eldorado omits the XLC’s famous storage shelf in favor of saving weight and money. It incorporates a unique stuffsac that clips directly to the hammock’s ridgeline to work as a ridgeline storage pocket. At just 15.9 oz the Eldorado is one of our lightest options

Hammock Comparison Chart
Note: The weight ratings listed below are based on comfort, not absolute tensile strength. So for instance the single layer is rated for a max of 250 lbs because users above that weight will experience more stretch than is ideal and so would be more comfortable in something with more support (like the Heavyweight double). The comfort ratings can be pushed somewhat but you will be trading in comfort in doing so.
Single Layer Eldorado:
Max comfort range: up to 250 lbs
Max load:Â 350 lbs
Hammock weight: 16oz (hammock with continuous loops only)
Fabric: 40D Nylon

The ridgeline on my hammock is too loose or too tight, how do I fix this?
You loosen the ridgeline by loosening the heavy duty camping hammock suspension and you tighten the ridgeline by tightening the hammock suspension. The ridgeline should be neither super tight nor drooping, and this will be achieved when your suspension straps run at about a 30 deg angle. Tightening/loosening the suspension will also raise/lower the hammock, so you may need to raise/lower the straps on the tree trunk to dial in the final hammock height which should be about chair height.
What is the largest pad that will fit in your hammocks?
Generally any standard-sized backpacking pad (20″ or 25″ width) will work regardless of thickness and length, but in general the largest commercial camping pad that will be appropriate will be the size of the Exped downmat 9 LW, which is aprox. 77″x25″x3.5″. Also keep in mind that in a hammock you need insulation only, no padding is needed so extra thick air mattresses are not necessary, R-value and warmth are what are really important. Also keep in mind that if you are considering buying a new pad to use with one of our end-gathered heavy-duty camping hammocks (like the Blackbird or XLC), that an underquilt will be much more comfortable and a lot less hassle so you should seriously consider putting that money towards an underquilt instead.
What is the difference between your suspension options?
Continuous loops: This option is not a useable suspension by itself. It comes only with small Amsteel loops on the end of the hammock that act as anchor points for the attachment of just about any suspension type. Suspension weight: 7g.
Webbing w/Buckles: This is a popular suspension option, it includes a pair of 12′ polyester straps with simple to use buckles, it is intended to be used with a pair of carabiners. Easy to use and adjust, almost no learning curve. Suspension weight: 6.7oz, one pair of Warbonnet carabiners: 1.75oz.
Whoopies w/Dynaweave Straps: Standard 6′ Amsteel whoopie slings hitched directly to the end of your heavy duty camping hammock, and 6′ Dynaweave tree straps (loop at each end). Our Dynaweave webbing is made from UHMWPE fiber which has the highest strength to weight ratio of any synthetic fiber available, the result is a full strength webbing that is much thinner and compact at 1/3 the weight of standard polyester webbing. Suspension weight: 2.35oz, One pair of Warbonnet FishHooks: 6g.
Becket suspension: Our longest suspension option (and lightest per foot), with 6′ of extra reach compared to our Buckle or Whoopie suspensions. Hammock comes with Amsteel continuous loops hitched on the ends and a pair of 15′ Dynaweave straps (loop at one end). Suspension weight: 2.5oz, One pair of Warbonnet FishHooks: 6g.

After using an ENO “double” to “sleep” for 1 night, I now use a WB Eldorado. I recently received this but I’ve slept in it a total of 5 nights and hung around a several hours during the day. One night was low 27° , winds 20, with a wookie UQ 20° & a 20° bag. I was in base layers and very warm!!
Sleep quality is incredible. No shoulder squeeze, 100% flat lay. The one issue I have is it’s not 100% bug proof. I noticed the zippers don’t come together all the way. Leaving a hole just big enough for any mosquito to squeeze through. You would almost need a bug net over the already hung bugnet/hammock if you were in BWCA in the summer. All in all, high quality, best sleep I’ve ever had hammock. Would recommend. Customer service is top shelf as well.

This hammock came with me on my entire AT thru hike until it got too cold & started sleeping in shelters every night so I sent it home. The whoopie slings w/ fish hooks make it incredibly easy to set up!! Integrated bug net, guy line, asymmetrical shape, it’s all exactly what you need for a good night’s sleep. I slept in this thing for a couple thousand miles and I’d sleep in it for a couple thousand more.

Great hammock. I purchased the El Dorado after seeing my backpacking buddies’ Blackbird. It’s comfortable, durable and looks great.

Upgraded to an Eldorado double layer heavyweight hammock from a cheap buy one get one free hammock. I am a heavyweight guy and I found it to be a night and day difference when I set it up in my yard. Can’t wait to get it out in the trail!!!

If you are starting out understanding that sleeping in a cheap hammock won’t be comfortable and want to keep it affordable, get the removable bug net, continuous ridgeline, and still have a fairly low weight this is a great hammock.
This is a great hammock to start with.

I had a zipper pull off on my very first night of use. I’d researched and researched, but I guess I should’ve gotten the XLC or something with an established track record. Really disappointed, hoping to return it.

Our gear is not indestructable, like any piece of lightweight gear you have to be somewhat careful with parts of it and if you don’t it can be damaged, particularly the first couple times when you aren’t yet familiar with using it.

I have two of these with a third one on the way, so that tells you something! I currently have a single layer and a heavyweight double layer. Both offer a similar lay for me at 180-190 (with the double being slightly more rigid) and they are extremely comfortable to sleep or sit in. The double layer is great for really buggy areas. The bugnet is a good distance from your face with the guyline so no ‘skeeters wake you up in the middle of the night. If it’s really buggy I’ll bring some painters’ tape to cover any small holes they might sneak into. I have no problem with calf ridge and find that I can lay comfortably with the Warbonnet “standard” setup (foot end 16″ above head) or more level if that’s what’s available. Stuff sac is great for storing any essentials on the ridgeline. For me, there’s no reason to look anywhere else for my hammocks.

This is my first ever hammock and I don’t think I could be more satisfied. I purchased the single layer in Autumn Orange with the becket+fishhook suspension, it weighs next to nothing and packs down extremely small. I initially shopped Warbonnet because of the modular systems you can build on and was blown away by the comfort of the hammock as I had not been able to test anything out prior to purchase. I’m looking forward to building my cold weather system with the accessories Warbonnet manufactures and I’m confident the quilts, UQP, and top cover will be as high quality as the Eldorado is.

I love my Eldorado and the interchangeable nature of its parts. It allowed me to work my way up gradually into a full XLC setup while also having another hammock for my kids and friends to use. Excellent craftsmanship. I dig the new softer-feeling fabric, too!

Unreal quality and some of the best sleep I’ve ever had on the trail. I’ve been using an amazon hammock with a bug net for years and calling it good. Purchasing an Eldorado is like driving around some Chrysler Lebaron and then jumping into a Rolls Royce. Extremely easy to set up/tear down, weighs nothing and the asymmetrical sleep is about as flat as you can get. Also all the accessories on the hammock are perfectly set up (stuff sack as storage bag on the ridge line…genius!) I absolutely love it. Bought a double layer and returned it for a single layer and an UQ. You cannot ask for better sleep. The tent is going into storage because I’m hanging out from here on out.

I wanted to buy my first high-end hammock and after looking at all the options (Dutchware, Dream Hammock, Hammock Gear, etc.) I decided on the Eldorado for the combination of its price point, weight, and modularity (I like sleeping without a bug net whenever possible). After a comfy maiden voyage and a healthy number of naps, I am super-satisfied with my purchase and anticipate lots of use. Fantastic quality – super-happy with my purchase and would 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for a first (and last) hammock.

I’ve slept quite a few nights now in my single layer Eldorado and it’s perfect for me, a really comfortable, well-proportioned hammock. While it is the “frugal cousin” of the BB XLC, what you get for your money is most of the clever design features of the XLC which is afterall ‘Hammock Royalty’. The ability to add-on XLC accessories like the 4 Season top was a key factor in my purchase. The build quality of my Eldorado is superb, with quality stitching work and first-class materials. The tooth zippers for instance are sensible, a few extra grams compared to a coil zipper but so worth it. Weight including CLs and stuff sack is 581g on my scales. I’ve got no doubt my Eldorado will get plenty of use. Also, great customer support and service from the Warbonnet team.
