Review on Double Hammock Swing Bed - Upgraded Bamboo Spreader Bars, Large Cotton Rope For Indoor/Outdoor Use (2 Person Portable) by Jeff Shapiro

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Comfy, recommended, requires learning curve to get into hammock

I used this hammock with the Zupapa 2 Person Steel Hammock Stand 550 lb Capacity, Portable Hammock Frame Stand Heavy Duty (for 9 to 14 ft Hammocks). Easy to assemble. When assembled, the hammock is rather high off the ground, 3-4 feet off the ground. I am 5' 3", and getting into the hammock took learning. I had to stand on a chair to get high enough to get into the hammock. Using a step stool might help. Trick - do not attempt to get in the hammock from one of the edges, and then scoot over. Doesn't work. If near the edge, hammock will tilt near 180 degrees and flip you onto the ground. I found if I planted my rear end squarely in the middle of the hammock, it works well. The hammock does stretch and sink a lot after entering it, but still plenty high off the ground. After all the maneuvering, the hammock is actually very comfy. I do recommend.

Pros
  • 9 pounds
Cons
  • The hammock may attract bugs and insects when used outdoors
