What is the difference between Draumr 5.0 and Draumr Ultralight?
Draumr 5.0 og Draumr UL share all the same features and refinements, chair mode, storage pockets, and a good, flat sleeping surface. What sets the hammocks apart is mainly the materials used.
- Thinner and lighter fabric means that for the Draumr UL you can cut off a third of the weight of the Draumr 5.0, making it great choice for those going on longer hikes.
- The lightweight fabric used in Draumr UL results in a smaller packsize and allows more wind to pass through the bivy – great features if you are spending the night in tropical conditions.
- For winter-adventures the Draumr 5.0 might be a safer choice as the fabric will be more efficient towards winds and cold drafts.
- The Ammolight fabric used in the Draumr UL makes the hammock partially transparent, which we think is pretty cool.
Is the Draumr Ultralight less durable than the Draumr 5.0?
The Draumr UL is a sturdy hammock, but that said, the Draumr 5.0 is made of stronger materials than the Draumr UL and is therefore slightly more robust. With normal use and care, the Draumr UL will last just as long as the Draumr 5.0, but if durability is an important selling point for you, we recommend going for the Draumr 5.0.
Damage to our hammocks is in most cases related to accidents, such as contact with sharp objects, embers from a campfire, etc. Regardless of which hammock you choose, it is important to exercise caution when hanging up and packing away your hammock.
If any of your equipment gets damaged, we can usually help with a repair. For guidance on what to do in case of an accident, check out our customer service FAQ.
