Very versatile product – comfortable to sit on and read or to catch an afternoon nap.
One thing that did surprise is the range of distances that it can be suspended from. When you think of hammocks you tend to assume the post or trees must be at a particular distance apart for it to really work. This in fact is not the case. The material is very soft, yet elastic and strong. Using links and ropes you have a lot of options and lots of places where the hammock will settle really well.
