Customer Rating: Summary: good hammock stand Comment: I like this hammock stand. It's not stupendous, but it's quite good. It's sturdy and easy to assemble.
The only thing that isn't quite right (but is still functional) is that, due to the "V-bars" (the ones that project up from the ground) not fitting very tightly into their supports, the V-bars move a little when I sit in my hammock. It's not a big deal, but I feel that I should sit down carefully; I'd prefer if I didn't have to sit down carefully. That's the only reason that I give it 4 stars intsead of 5.
I'd recommend this hammock stand to a friend (it's good for the price), but I'd mention the bit above too. Customer Rating: Summary: easy setup Comment: product was very easy to set up, about 10 minutes. very sturdy as well. Customer Rating: Summary: Missing Hardware Comment: Despite the fact that the product description said that the necessary hardware was included, it was not in the box. Customer Rating: Summary: nice and sturdy stand Comment: this hammock stand serves the purpose very nicely, looks enormous. came with free shipping, and arrived very quickly. the box it came in was torn, but all parts were there. all in all i am quite pleased with this item. Customer Rating: Summary: Not sturdy, too short, chain rusts Comment: The hammock stand sections are loosely connected and pull apart when I try to move the stand in my backyard--- It takes two people even to drag the stand to a new position in my lawn. The stand is not long enough for our hammocks, so we have to tie knots in the string section to shorten them up, which reduces their comfort level. Even with this modification to my hammock, I sit about 6" off the ground because the stand does not hold the hammock high enough off the ground. The chain that connects the hammock to the stand started to rust after a week so we also do not have high hopes for durability. There is no way anyone paid $199 list price for this stand--- I rate it below quality of other stands I've bought. It's barely effective.
