Hobo Hammock vs Eno Hammock Reviewed Side by Side [Video Post]

Hobo Hammock vs ENO Hammock Reviewed Side by Side

This video outlines the basic advantages and disadvantages of both brands. This Hobo Hammocks vs ENO video will give you some good guidelines on what to look for when considering your next hammock purchase. Please enjoy the video below: Hobo Hammock vs Eno Hammock Reviewed Side by Side.

  • The ENO comes with a compression strap and the Hobo does not.
  • I don’t like the carabiners that came with my Hobo or ENO hammocks.  I end up using my own locking carabiners.
  • Hobo Hammocks includes hanging straps in their purchase price.  The ENO does not – you have to pay extra with ENO.
  • The Hobo Hammock is bigger than the ENO.  The ENO is truly a one-person hammock.
  • The end of the cord of the Hobo Hammock is finished with a sloppy end.  The end of the ENO cord is neat and crisp.
  • The nylon of both hammocks is similar.
  • Hobo Hammocks supports their community and I really like that about their company.

Compression StrapENO has a compression strap

The ENO comes with a compression strap and the Hobo does not.  Because I use my own carabiners (you’ll see in the next point) I have enjoyed the convenience of clipping my biners to the compression strap of my ENO.  And if you are all about packing your gear down to the smallest possible volume, you might enjoy the ENO better than the Hobo.  It is up to you.

CarabinersHobo Hammock vs ENO Hammock Reviewed Side by Side Carabiners

I don’t like the carabiners that come with either Hobo or ENO. The carabiners that came with my ENO and Hobo have sharp ends. I don’t like either of them. I end up using my own carabiners. (I have not seen the new wire carabiners that come with ENO hammocks now.) [Read more…] about Hobo Hammock vs Eno Hammock Reviewed Side by Side [Video Post]

Meet Jake Andersen: Owner of Hobo Hammocks

Why You Should Buy A Hobo HammockHobo Hammocks is a company that has a big heart and a great product.  Not only do they help feed the homeless of Salt Lake City, UT; but they also recycle old hammocks!  I had to find out more from the man who started it all:  Meet Jake Andersen, owner of Hobo Hammocks…

Get to Know Jake Andersen in 15 seconds

Friday evening, when the work is done, all I want to do is… read a book in my hammock. To be honest, the work is never done, and I like it that way. I am always having new ideas come to mind that I want to try, and I spend a lot of Friday evenings working on those ideas!

The last good book I read was… “Start Something That Matters” by Blake MycoskieJake Anderson Sunset in Thailand

The most beautiful Sunset/Sunrise I’ve ever seen was… in Thailand on the southern islands.

I am better than anybody I know at making (food or meal)… a bowl of cereal!

I will never again eat… baby goat brains. I lived in Mexico for 2 years, and this was by far the grossest thing I tried while out there!

My favorite pair or shoes are (brand)… TOMS. I read Blake Mycoskies book (The founder of TOMS) and he’s my inspiration. I love TOMS because I love supporting what he’s doing. I love the business model and I am trying to mimic it with my own company.

HCRB:  Hobo Hammocks, tell us how you came up with the idea?

Jake:  I like to stay busy. VERY busy. I’m going to dental school right now. It’s a very intense and expensive education, so I don’t have a lot of time, and I don’t have a lot of money. However, I’ve been passionate about hammocking for a few years, and there has been an entrepreneurial seed in my heart for as long as I can remember.

Last summer, as we were studying for our National Board Dental Exams, a friend and I decided to live out of hammocks for a few months in order to save up money for a trip to Thailand. We found an old, abandoned softball field and strapped our hammocks up to the chainlink fence on the backstop. I remember one morning my buddy reached out of his hammock to grab his pants, and about 500 moths flew out of them. It was crazy!

Hobo Hammocks Feeds 5500 In First Year Of Business

September 19, 2016 by Jason Clements

Hobo Hammocks Delivers 5500 Meals To The HomelessThe hammock company with a big heart delivers 5500 meals to the Rescue Mission of Salt Lake City.  Hobo Hammocks, in their first year of business, have made a gigantic impact on those who need help the most.  They help the homeless of Salt Lake City, Utah.

Jake Andersen, owner of Hobo Hammocks, coined the tag line for his company, “Buy a hammock, feed a hobo.”

Jake says, “I really believe in what I am doing… and up to date, we have delivered 5500 meals to the homeless through the Rescue Mission.  I had the privilege of talking to one of the owners, Chris Croswhite, of the Rescue Mission. Hearing how excited he was about how Hobo Hammocks had been able to contribute and help them out, I could tell that it really meant a lot to them….

…and that made me feel really good about what we have been doing here.”

Read the entire story of “why” Jake is helping the homeless here: Meet Jake Andersen.

What Is The Easiest Way To Connect With The Rescue Mission

For those of you not in Utah, who wish to help, you can go to their website http://rescuesaltlake.org/

You can make a financial contribution.  And if you are local (Salt Lake City, Utah), you can sign up as a volunteer.  There are tons of opportunities.  You can organize a food drive, a clothing drive or just be  apart of a drive that is going on.

Or, you can be a part of a couple of the really big events they have coming up.  They have their Thanksgiving dinner in November, where they fill their facility to capacity and feed as many people as they can.  The Rescue Mission is always looking for more volunteers.

And they’ll do a Christmas dinner as well.

You Help You When You Make Purchases At HoboHammocks.com

hobo-hammocks-feeds-5500-in-first-year-of-business-tshirtJake says. “Every hammock we sell, we provide a meal.  However, that extends to our other products, too.  Whether you purchase Hanging Straps, Indoor Mounting Kit, or a T-shirt (and Hobo Sleeping Bags coming out soon); no matter what you purchase, we’ll use a portion of that to donate to feed the homeless through the Rescue Mission of Salt Lake.”

“Another thing anyone can do is send in old, or broken hammocks – we sew those up (repair the old hammocks) and donate those hammocks to the homeless so that they have a place to sleep instead of on the cold, hard ground.”



HCRBeta is an enthusiastic supporter of Hobo Hammocks and their mission to assist the homeless.
