Back in 2016 I started sleeping in one for my back ( it’s super crooked) I try to sleep in a bed up it’s impossible to fall asleep

Cotton and nylon hammocks don’t have enough give in them for my body and head to lay flat (tried all angles, distances etc. the problem is the material)

Hoping someone has an experience sleeping in one made out of Lycra/spandex

My dad is just around 300 lbs at 6’3”, I was looking for a recommended hammock for casual use? And if anyone knows a good stand that could handle it! Looking to grab one with straps he can take with him but also a solid stand for easy setup at home

Hello! I bought a hammock chair and stand for my bedroom a few years back. I recently had to put it in storage while I was moving and once I finished moving, after a series of very unfortunate events, I found out my ex-roommate/friend stole all of the bolts and screws for the hammock chair stand and my tools. I still have all the parts, I just need the screws and bolts to put it together.

Any suggestions on where I can get the replacement screws and bolts? Attaching a picture of what the stand and parts looks like.

I've been sleeping in a hammock exclusively for almost 2 years now. I've been using this guy the whole time, until about 5 minutes ago, when the shitty fabric finally gave up the ghost and I shoved my elbow through it. Figured I'd ask the experts before I bought myself a new bed this time.

I'm pretty hefty, looking for something at least partially cotton and cost-effective, Brazilian style with a total length of 144" give or take(I really don't want to move the brackets), that will last me at least as long as the shitty Amazon one. Preferably longer? If you have a favorite brand or hammock I'd really appreciate being pointed towards something other than Amazon or Lowe's.

Howdy,

I'm looking to sleep full time in a hammok and I'm picking out a stand for it. So far I like the Eno Solopod the most but I'm a bit worried as my Kammok Roo Double is listed as 6" longer than the Eno DoubleNest that Eno pairs with the stand. Anyone have any experience with this setup? All or part of it is useful info.

I am moving into a new apartment and I'd like to get a hammock instead of bed. Wall or ceiling mount are not an option. I am looking into budget friendly options that seem sturdy. My budget is around 100€, and hammock from the image fits in that budget. Wood thickness is 5.5cm and length is 3.20m.

Usually during the summer, I spend up to one month sleeping in hammock outdoor and I find it quite comfortable. I move a lot when sleeping, so the mount would have to be stable and not rock or squeak with movements. I had trouble sleeping times when my hammock was tied to unstable trees or trees with multiple hammocks that would rock with turning or moving. So if frame is not stable, I would rather opt for just a matress.

Does anybody have experience with similar stand, or have any other reccomendations that would fit my budget. I'd rather avoid diy as I don't have a car or tools, so it would be a bit of complication.

I need to hang my hammock from exposed ceiling joists in a lofted bedroom (Every wall is too far apart and would be in the way of furniture. Is there a resource similar to those on optimal hang height/width that can use to have an idea of the distance I need to anchor each point?

Being the ceiling I plan to thick rope to extend the ends of the hammock to the ceiling anchors so it sits lower.

Ordered some Zing-It line this morning to make a tarp ridgeline and was going to thread a Dutch Hook on the spliced loop end that goes around the tree. I got to thinking if there are any other easy options instead of a Dutch Hook. Carabiner maybe, something else?

What are you kids using?

Ordered up some Zing-It 2.2mm line from RBTR this morning. Was going to play with splicing a Dutch hook or something similar on it for a tarp ridgeline.

Besides the Dutchware Dutch hook, what are my other choices for hardware for the zing-it ridgeline going around the tree? How are you guys attaching the standing end of the ridgeline to the tree?

I just moved into a new house that has perfect trees for a hammock. However I live in Florida so it rains. A lot. I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for a hammock that can withstand rainier weather.

I would take it down during hurricanes but I feel like it would be a hassle to set it up every time I want to use it.

Also I want to stay on the cheaper side. My max budget is around 80 dollars.

Edit: could I leave the straps up and just remove the hammock or do I need to take the straps down too?

Has anyone seen decorative looking heavy duty screw in hooks? Installing a hammock in concrete walls for occasional use and the owner wants the hooks to look pretty when the hammock's not up. I've been searching awhile and I'm starting to wonder if this is not a thing.

I have been sleeping in a hammock daily for over 6 months. This past month it has been increasingly difficult to stay warm at night. I have tried several blankets and even an electric space heater below me. Last week my wife bought an under quilt by One Wind. I was a little skeptical as it was only $40. I absolutely love this product. I am able to keep warm and sleep all through the night. I wake up refreshed without any back pain.

Here's the context of my question.

I (43m) love hammocks. My wife (41f) is not a fan. A few years ago I had a weird back injury that had me give up running as a hobby. I was in physical therapy for a while, etc.

If I sleep even one night in a bed I can hardly stand up in the morning because of back pain shooting down my legs and all through my back. It's so bad I'm thinking about getting a cane.

However, one night in a hammock when I'm camping, when I'm backpacking or even in my garage just because and I feel ten years younger. Zero pain, I hop out of the hammock and feel like a million bucks. This happens every time.

I really can't continue to sleep in a bed long term. Has anyone in a similar situation reconciled a situation like this in their bedroom? How did you navigate the relationship aspect of it and how did you set up the bed room to have a hammock and a bed? I'd love to see pictures of bedrooms with hammocks that other people use on a permanent basis.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been eyeing the 2T’s Hammock Chair from DutchWareGear because of its incredible versatility. The fact that it can be used as a pack cover to protect a large backpack as well as function as a chair is a really smart.

Unfortunately, its weight limit doesn’t suit my fat ass, and the manufacturer doesn’t offer a reinforced version.

I’m looking for recommendations for something with similar multifunctionality that:

• Can support at least 300 lbs/136 kg

• Works as a hammock chair, pack cover, and gear hammock

• Is 100% waterproof

Does anyone know of a product that checks these boxes?

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a comfortable and durable Hammock Chair. I've always dreamed of having my own little relaxation corner in the garden where I can read, nap, or just enjoy the nature around me.

I'm looking for a Hammock Chair that's not just comfortable but also durable enough to withstand outdoor weather conditions. Importantly, it should be easy to install and de-install, since I might move it around depending on the sun and shade in my garden. Also, if there are any with adjustable height options, that would be a bonus.

Furthermore, I'm a little confused about the material. I've heard that cotton hammocks are the most comfortable, but I'm worried about them being less resistant to rain and humidity. Would synthetic be better for outdoor use?
Please share your Hammock Chair stories, I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

I'm relatively new to the Tensa 4, so bear with me. I'm looking for how people run the amsteel line from the ground anchor to the hammock. Does it just go up and over the ball line? Essentially, I'm looking for more clarification/pictures on this step: Attach the black end of a guyline to the bottom (foot end) apex. If the guyline is webbing, pass one of the upper daisy-chain loops over either pole end to leave a tail. If the guyline is Amsteel, loop directly over the ball.

Hey im looking for a company that mada a hammock tent kit 4-5 years ago. It was a tent you could put on top of a cargo net hammock base. Anyone remember who made them? US made looks abit like the Aerial

Hi, I'm interested in getting an indoors hammock chair hammock. I was quivering wondering about the merits of hanging it from the ceiling vs getting a frame. I read it's difficult to hang a hammock and easy to pull down your ceiling. Dpes that go for chair hammocks as well?

Found someone selling this for $40. It's 14'8" from the connection points and 40" from the ground to the connection points.

had the idea to hang my hammock from my loft bed but my tree straps let it hang too low so i went with a not-so-safe method. both sides are hung like this. i would love to sleep here, but i don’t want a rude awakening (literally) if the tension snaps. thoughts? would you sleep?

Brand new Tensa4 owner and loving it!
