Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The frame measures: 9.5' long, 4' wide at the base/legs and 3'9" high. The entire frame is made of what looks like industrial grade steel; very strong and well made. Rated at a 400lb (200KG) weight limit. The entire package weights about 27lbs (12KG). The package includes: 5 knob style bolts for securing all parts of the frame together. 2 hooks for the hammock with wing nuts for fastening the hook to the frame. 1 hammock 1 duffle bag that holds the entire set-up, frame, hardware and hammock. 2 sets of instructions (English & au francais), both stitched to each side of the duffle bag Setting up and taking apart the frame and installing the hammock takes about 7 minutes, no tools necessary. The hammock is held in place on the frame by two steel hooks, the hammock's loops have a metal inner frame/hook for added security and durability. The hammock itself is actually much better than I expected, it isn't hot at all either, so you won't be dissapointed, but, as the instructions say, the hammock is made of cotton, and so will stretch, at which point, you must place the frame hooks at a lower position to compensate for the fabric's elasticity. Which brings up an important point to note about this frame, the hooks can be placed at different levels on the main posts, so you can use a larger size hammock, in case you don't like the one included or for future purchases. This bit is important: Something happened when I first set the frame up and started using the hammock. The bolts at the bottom of the frame would touch the floor, making the frame's legs tip over from side to side, creating a very bumpy feeling wen swinging on the hammock. The problem is the legs and the direction they must be installed in. The instructions do not say anything about this, so I had to figure it out myself. So you don't have to go through this, check the clearance between the bolt and the floor, try it both ways, install the legs in one directions, then switch. It's hard to see the difference by looking at the legs shape, the look exactly the same, but trust me, they're not. In conclusion, this frame and hammock combo is a great deal, I bought mine from Amazon at $150, an it is now down to $130 and at that price, you can't find better than this. The entire package is great, ready for camping or to simply leave out on your yard. You get all you need, a tool-free set-up, a carrying bag and quality at a great price.
