I did receive my replacement. It worked well during several days in the field. I appreciate the quick response. I am looking forward to the under and top quilt campaign!

Review from Kickstarter

Although I was initially impressed with the quality after a few uses the stitching is already coming apart. I am in the Army and have been using the tarp in the field were others have commented on the tarp. I am supposed to be out this weekend and during my pretraining inspection, I find that one of the ridgeline loops is almost completely unraveled. I will attempt to restitch it myself. I was very excited about the upcoming quilt campaign, but I am not so sure now.

@Steve Glad to hear that you are getting into hammock camping and that you are pleased with our gear! I am going to make some instructions for the door kit very soon and will post an update when they are ready. I will send you a message with some basic instructions. Jason

Review from Kickstarter

This was my first KS backing and I am very pleased to announce that I have received my Tarp and door kit today. I was very keen to have this tarp since I have never tried tarp or hammock camping before. Now with the apex, I will definitely give it a try, plus I don't need to drag around 10 pounds of weight from my tent. Thank you guys for delivering on your promise and getting the product out in time and with such quality. I would not hesitate to recommend my friends to get one of these once they see me string it up. PS. could you please make a video or perhaps send some instruction on the additional door kit attachment? it would really be helpful. Cheers

Received my 2 tarps yesterday. Attached the RL. Looks great and will be testing them this weekend. 60% chance of rain. One quick question. Are they seam sealed?

Review from Kickstarter

Got my tarp just in time for a multinight canoe trip. It worked great and all my buddies were jelous of its quality. Thanks Apex.

Review from Kickstarter

I recently received my tarp. Spent some time playing with it this weekend. Worked great! Looking forward to using it on many outings this fall.

Jibbs

Review from Kickstarter

Thanks, got my package today and impressed with the quality of the tarps. Haven't had time to check out the hammock, but I'm sure it will exceed my expectations, just like the tarps. Good luck in the future!

Sawadee

Review from Kickstarter

Just received my last tarp. This makes three hammocks and three tarps.
I love them all. Very very well made. I hope to use them forever. At 67 forever has some limitation but I am sure these will be in great shape to hand down if I ever stop camping.
(I doubt I will stop willingly.)
Thanks for a great set of products and thanks for the extra double pull bags.. Good luck with your business. I will you all the luck you deserve and am sure you will continue to succeed with this and other ventures with quality and value like these products.

Review from Kickstarter

Just wanted to swing by and let you guys know that I finally got a chance to use my tarp. Verdict: 2-thumbs up! Worked really, really well. I was camped right at the edge of a mountain pass in Alaska with some serious winds ripping over my tent and tarp. The thing was rock solid. I woke up a few times just to check, worried the high winds would be a problem, but it was good to go. Very pleased with how smooth this whole campaign went. Now I feel confident enough to pull the trigger on the camping hammock system.

Most excellent. Mine arrived today in New Zealand. Looks great. Hoping to use it on a up coming 3 day tramp (hike in USA words) as a porch in front of the tent. Just have to sneak it into my wife's pack. thank you for a quick backer reward.

I'm really looking to receiving mine. I'll be hiking the Pictured Rocks National Shoreline Trail. I ordered the doors, and upgraded lines as well. I think this will be a great set. I can't wait to set it all up.

Review from Kickstarter

Came home to mine sitting on the front porch today. (shipping envelope came open, but it looks fine) Are you planning on adding this to your Amazon store? Being a kickstarter supporter, I'd love the chance to give a review after I've used it a bit.
