Our verdict

Reasonable for groups who want a Trillium hammock plus a SkyRail Backrest in one purchase and can find strong trees: the bundles list From $576, up to $918.40. Look elsewhere if you need capacity, weight or floor size on this page, since it points to the separate product pages instead, or if you want a tent-based stack. The main caveat is that the crossed-out $1,148 does not match any one bundle price shown.

Best for
Groups who want a Trillium hammock with a SkyRail Backrest in one purchase and have trees strong enough for it.
Skip if
You want capacity, weight and floor size on one page, since this listing leaves full specs to the linked product pages.

Why 3.5/5: Lifted by clear per-option prices and a plain statement of what each bundle contains. Held back by the missing specification table, no independent test of this exact bundle, and the need for strong trees and some set-up practice.

Rather than a single product, Trillium & SkyRail Bundles is a set of five options that each combine a Trillium giant hammock with a SkyRail Backrest, starting From $576. The choice runs from the 3-person Trillium Mesh or Fabric to the Trillium XL 6-Person and the Safari versions, up to $918.40 for the Safari Trillium XL & SkyRail Bundle XL. The page describes the SkyRail as a backrest and balustrade for sitting upright, and gives no spec sheet.

Options and pricing

Five options are priced: Trillium Mesh & SkyRail Bundle $576, Trillium Fabric & SkyRail Bundle $576, Safari Trillium & SkyRail Bundle $638.40, Trillium XL & SkyRail XL Bundle $718.40 and Safari Trillium XL & SkyRail Bundle XL $918.40. None showed as out of stock when read. A crossed-out higher price of $1,148 is also shown; treat it as the store's own comparison, not a market price, because the page does not say which bundle it belongs to.

How it compares

Two ground-level stacks add space under a tree tent instead: the Flite Ground Stack lists $556 and the Connect Ground Stack lists $686. These bundles start From $576 and pair a hammock with a backrest, so they include no tent. The Connect Classic Stack, a 2 story suspended set up for up to 4 people per its text, lists $932.

Shipping, returns and warranty

Shipping is free on orders over $199 sent from the US (lower 48) and EU countries; for Canada, the UK, Australia and New Zealand the page says its rates are kept as low as it can and gives a rough guide of $10 for most accessories and $20 for heavier items inside the US mainland. Average delivery is 3 to 5 working days in the US and EU and 7 to 10 days for the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. PO Box addresses are refused. The page says no extra taxes or duties apply to purchases from the US, EU, Canada, Australia or the UK, optional cover from Route can be added at checkout, and free shipping covers the first delivery attempt only; stack and accessory parts can come from different warehouses and arrive in separate packages. Returns: unused, unopened products in their original packaging can go back within 30 days of receipt, and opened or tested products can too, with a restocking fee the page gives as $20 for an unopened box and $50 for a used product (another line on the same page says $30 for all non-warranty returns). You pay return shipping on opened products unless they are defective or were sent wrongly, pre-loved and clearance sales are final, Canadian returns go to a US return centre with duties paid, and EU returns that are not warranty cases go to the UK. Warranty: products bought on tentsile.com after January 2025 carry a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects when used as the manuals say; straps and ratchets are covered for 5 years and a rainfly is meant to be replaced about every 3 years. The exclusions include poles and pegs, wear and tear, UV degradation (fabric rated for 1,500 hours for black mesh, 2,500 hours for green fabric and 3,500 hours for Safari fabric), snow load over 1 inch, high winds and products bought from third parties. Orders from $35 to $2,000 can be split into four payments with Zip, ClearPay, PayPal or Afterpay.

Before you buy

Tentsile's page header says "Rated 4.5/5" with "1100+ reviews" and "120,000+ Happy Customers"; these are the store's own figures and were not checked. Independent coverage we could open is thin: a hands-on review of the Connect by TechGadgetsCanada (March 2024, about 8 set-ups and 4 to 5 nights) found a steep learning curve, workable trees at only about half of its stops and one cold night, and a Wilderness Times write-up of the Stingray summarises specs and owner feedback without showing any hands-on testing. Tentsile's own pages set limits that matter, for example a recommended set-up height of 1.2m / 4ft on its Trilogy page, a 1 inch snow-load limit in its warranty terms and an FAQ warning that tension loads can reach 15kN, so only healthy trees should be used. The store also warns about copycat sites, and its returns and warranty terms apply to purchases made on tentsile.com.

What we liked

  • Five combinations are priced separately, from $576 to $918.40, so size and fabric can be matched to the group
  • The page covers both 3-person and 6-person hammocks, in mesh, fabric and Safari versions
  • A SkyRail or SkyRail XL Backrest comes with each option, described as a backrest and balustrade of breathable material
  • The page gives a minimum recommended tree diameter of 14"/30cm for the Trillium XL

Worth noting

  • No specification table: capacity, weight, packed size and floor area are left to linked pages and are not in this text
  • The SkyRail's size, weight and materials beyond breathable material are not given
  • Prices rise with size and fabric: the Safari Trillium XL & SkyRail Bundle XL lists $918.40 against $576 for the Trillium Mesh & SkyRail Bundle
  • The page says trees need to be strong enough, but the tree-diameter note sits under the Trillium XL and nothing is given for the other options

Questions before you buy

What is in a Trillium & SkyRail bundle?

Each bundle pairs one Trillium hammock with a SkyRail or SkyRail XL Backrest. The hammock is a Trillium Mesh or Fabric 3-Person, a Trillium XL 6-Person, a Safari Trillium 3-Person or a Safari Trillium XL 6-Person, depending on the option.

What does the SkyRail do?

The page describes it as a backrest and balustrade that adds usable space, made of breathable material so a person can sit upright. It gives no size, weight or capacity for the SkyRail.

How big a tree does it need?

Under the Trillium XL, the page says it suits trees that are strong enough, with a minimum recommended tree diameter of 14"/30cm. It gives no separate tree guidance for the other hammocks.

Can I return it if I change my mind?

The returns page gives 30 days from receipt for unused, unopened products in their original packaging, and opened or tested products can also go back within 30 days minus a restocking fee it gives as $20 for an unopened box and $50 for used items (another line says $30 for non-warranty returns). You pay return shipping on opened products unless they are defective or were sent wrongly. Pre-loved and clearance sales are final.

What does the warranty cover?

The warranty page says products bought on tentsile.com after January 2025 carry a lifetime warranty on manufacturing defects when used as the manuals say, with straps and ratchets covered for 5 years. It excludes poles and pegs, wear and tear, UV degradation, snow load over 1 inch and products bought from third parties. A rainfly should be replaced about every 3 years.

How long does delivery take?

The shipping page says average delivery is 3 to 5 working days in the US and EU and 7 to 10 days for the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, with free shipping over $199 from the US (lower 48) and EU. Some stack and accessory parts can ship from different warehouses and arrive separately.

Can I pay in instalments?

The Buy Now Pay Later page lists Zip, ClearPay, PayPal and Afterpay, which split an order of $35 to $2,000 into four payments; the Zip example says four instalments over 6 weeks with no interest, though the card issuer may charge fees.

Independent

What we couldn’t verify

  • The page has no specification table: it tells readers to click through to each product for full specs, so capacity, weight and floor size are not on this page.
  • The store shows a crossed-out $1,148, above every option price ($576 to $918.40), without saying which bundle it applies to or what it is made up of.
  • The page gives no SkyRail dimensions and does not say whether the SkyRail XL fits only the XL hammocks beyond the bundle names.
  • Independent testing of this exact product: none found; the outside coverage located covers the Connect (hands-on, 2024) and the Stingray (specs summary).
  • "Rated 4.5/5, 1100+ reviews" and "120,000+ Happy Customers" are the store's own page-header claims, not checked.
  • The returns page gives a $50 restocking fee for used products and a $30 fee for non-warranty returns in different places.
