Review on Relax In Style With Sorbus 2-Person Premium Cotton Hammock With Stand And Pillow - Heavy Duty Portable Hammock For Garden, Patio, And Outdoor Adventures by Brian Cueto

To be fair, I've only had the hammock one day. I'm not sure just yet if it will be a hammock that I use for years to come, but it's definitely one I'll be using over the next 4 or 5 months while the weather is nice enough. I live in GA, so the weather tends to be pretty warm through much of the winter. I received it in one box and needed literally no instructions, though they were included. Set up was extremely simple and I had it together in less than ten minutes. It's comfortable and seems fairly sturdy, although I'm skeptical of the 450lb weight limit. However, I'm a slim guy and weigh about 175, so it's not enough of a concern to worry about.Be forewarned however, that there is NO separate padding. The hammock bed is woven together to form the bed itself. I'm only mentioning this (and taking off one star) because this is certain to run into a problem should I leave it in the elements. If it gets wet, it will most likely mildew, so I'm taking it in and out each time I use it. This is however, a simple fix. It's a matter of unhooking one side and rolling up the bed. The frame itself does feel sturdy enough, however, it creaks when I get in it, and I can't be completely certain it won't bend over time. Only time will tell.It's a very large frame, which I knew from the beginning. For those of you considering it for an apartment patio, be aware of this. It's pretty wide (about 5 feet across with the wooden spreader bars on the bed of the hammock) and the frame itself is right at 12 feet. It will take up your entire patio.Overall, as long as it holds up, I'll be happy. I did lay in it the first day and it's extremely comfortable, big enough for two people, although I haven't had anyone in it with me yet. I'll update this later if there are issues and if it's still a positive review if I get another person in it with me and it continues to hold up. So far, happy with the purchase, especially for $80.
