Summary: No hammock yet, but the stand is great!
Comment: I bought this stand because it was in my gold box for a good price (plus free shipping!), and I had intended to buy a hammock/swing anyhow. I cannot attest to how the stand performs with a hammock or swing, since I haven't gotten around to buying the swing yet, but the stand itself is great. I got it about a month and a half ago. The box it arrives in is quite large, as is the stand. However, the stand was very easy to put together. I did have some difficulty getting the last "button" to click into the stand, since you really have to put your weight into it, but otherwise, it was fairly self-explanatory. The swing is very strong (I could hang from it without any problem), and looks like it will last a long time. I'd recommend it to anyone.

Summary: Swing Stand (doubles as Chin Up Bar)
Comment: I bought this stand with the single Hatteras seat. If you've the space for the stand, it's excellent. Good enough, in fact, that I am saving for a double seat. It's not the height that is an issue, it's the base. The four feet extend out considerably offering great stability, but they DO extend out.The surprise for me came as I finished putting together the stand. At first I hung from the top bar, then I realized that I could do chin ups and the stand held me without so much as a flex; I'm 5'10" and 165lbs. (um, I did have to tuck my legs a bit to keep from hitting the bottom bar).
I'm ready to buy another one to take to work, just for stress relief. Very nice frame, simple construction, great green paint (too early to see if it endures).

Summary: A stable stand
Comment: This arrived at the office in a nearly seven foot long box. I got at least as many stares from people in the office as I did from people on the road as I drove home with the top down and this box sticking up several feet into the air.Once at home and unpacked (give yourself a lot of room) I set about putting it together. After looking over the directions I slid all of the pieces together pretty quickly. Over all it took about forty five minutes to unpack, assemble and place the stand. There were no tools required although the instructions recommend a hammer to tighten the joints. If you use a hammer make sure it is a rubber mallet. Scratching the paint with a metal hammer will only lead to rust and I bet returns would be really difficult with dents along the frame.
It has been up for about three weeks now and remains solid and stable. I haven't tested the maximum weight rating but I would bet that the rating is conservative. The frame is tubular steel about two inches in diameter.
Another caution, the stand arrives in one box and it is heavy. If you cannot carry lot of weight get someone to help you move it.

Summary: Great product, but a little bulky
Comment: This is an excellent product. Easy to put together. However, it is a little bit bigger than I expected it to be. I really did not have a lot of room where I wanted to piece to be, so I thought instead of the large lay down hammock, this chair hammock would be great. It is still a bit large. Overall, I am satisfied with it though.

Summary: Seems Pretty Dangerous
Comment: We don't have much room for this sort of stuff, and its "skeletal" design posed a problem from the minute we slid it out of its box. [Name], of course, couldn't be restrained: he was all over the thing, trying his level best to "sit" on it, to "make it do the flip" and other things he's learned from TV. Meanwhile, his mother and I were having a world of trouble. With this ... device and, alas, with one another. But neither of us could figure out the hammock swing stand. Hammock's supposed to swing? Swing serves as a hammock? We brought out an old tarp and tried to get it to fit in the thing, but it didn't work. I tried it and fell down, to my eternal regret. ... Don't buy it: buy a rocker, instead.
