I bought two of these hammocks. I put both of them together in probably 15 minutes. Very simple, no tools required.The hammock stands are hefty and well made. I was looking for a long time and read a million reviews before I settled on this kind. I’m so glad I did. These things are beefy! The stand has a nice finish and is sturdy.I set one up in the house because it was cold and rainy out. I had one cat and one dog up on the hammock with me, and when the dog got up and down, the hammock barely moved.The hammock itself is nice. It had a little bit of an odor when I first opened it, and I would have preferred to wash it before using it, but wasn’t sure how it would wash. The hammock is strong and nicely made. It’s soft and very comfortable.We also have the style of hammocks that you can hang from trees, and we will be able to use those in these stands as well.They had a decent sale on these, and I’m glad I pulled the trigger.Very happy either my purchase, and I hope they last a long time. I wonder if I can find plugs to keep the rain out of the extra holes in the stand, but that’s the only thing I would add.Just get it. You’ll be happy you did.
