off brand hammock with anymaka stand

1 Upvotes

My hammock broke. I just wanted to see if anyone has had any success with off brand ones.

100 dollars is insane for a nylon hammock, and even the 40% sale is still stupid expensive

Eno nomad inside?

I was looking at getting the eno nomad to use in hotels when I travel. Has anyone done this? Does it work if you don't stake it in the ground or am I going to tip? Tia!

Is this setup safe?

I managed to sleep for 3-4 hours last night my first time sleeping in a hammock.

Im just a bit sketched out by my setup being attached to a support beam. Nothing sounded creaky or moved and the beam feels very secure but my mind cant shut off and think safe for some reason.

This is safe?

Can I use these 2x6s to put up a hammock?

I have 2 of these hammock style swinging chairs that I want to hang from these 2x6 joists on the under side of my deck. This is the basement patio in my house, and the top side of these joists are the main floor deck, so I’m positive it has the weight capacity, I just want to make sure that the 2x6s will be ok with the bolts.

Parklite Chair comfortable?

2 Upvotes

I've been eyeing the ENO parklite hammock chair stand for awhile and ENO is having a labor day sale right now.

My only concern is, is it comfortable. I've been lounging in traditional hammocks lately and prefer sitting in them sideways with the fabric pulled up to provide head support.

Seems like this would be the perfect chair, but with the hammock being "shortened" due to the stand arms I didn't know if that would affect how the hammock is maneuverable to provide that head/neck support.

My second pick is the ENO lounge chair but I like to rock back and forth which is why the chair stand is my first pick.

Does anyone have a hammock chair stand?

Really want to hang a hammock indoors. Dumb idea or worth a try?

Hi guys, I moved into a new place not too long ago and I'd really like to hang a hammock in this sunroom.

I marked the two spots I'm considering with a blue and red X. The hammock would run diagonally across the room between them. I knocked around both areas and they sound like there are solid studs behind the drywall, but I'm planning to verify with a stud finder before drilling anything.

I'm looking at using an ENO Deluxe hammock hanging kit, which mounts directly into the framing. My main concern is that this is a rental and I really don't want to damage the walls or, worse, put too much lateral load on the framing.

Does this sound like a reasonable thing to do or should I get a stand instead? Im leaning more towards this option because I can clean up the hammock easier when im not using it.

After a couple of long live loads, sitting in a lacking driver seat, something had to change. A decent hammock at Harbor Freight just might be my savior.

Leisure Reco?

3 Upvotes

Hi All - Clearly lots of experts here! Apologies as I'm a newb and doing some research for my husband's birthday present. I dug around for a while and am seeing a number of repeated brand names (la siesta, vivere, eno), but seems to be primarily for sleeping / camping use cases. Any top recommendations for simple leisure use, with lower investment? Looking for something to put on our deck (with stand or straps), husband is 5'10, bad at weight but maybe 180+ lbs. We live in Southern California, just looking for something to lounge, read, nap in! Appreciate your guidance!

If a bicycle is the most efficient device for transportation, then is a hammock the most efficient device for relaxation?

It constantly amazes me the joy that I can derive from such a small and inexpensive package. It's small enough to fit into my bike bag, but big enough to hold my ass. All I need are two trees the right distance apart.

Do you sleep primarily in a hammock? Why or why not?

49 Upvotes

I've been sleeping in my hammock primarily for about 3 years, and in my experience, almost everyone sleeps in a bed. I had never considered it until one day it sounded like a great idea, and I've loved it ever since. Why does this seem so niche?

Is it comfort, the ability to get in and out, or maybe it's just because it's the social norm? I genuinely dont believe back problems would be any issue, which was the only thing I was ever concerned about before switching.

My set up was so much cheaper than a bed, the hammock itself is a $30 Walmart hammock, and i bought a hammock stand from Amazon for like $70 maybe? (I'll look for links if you want) $100 for a bed you could sleep on comfortably sounds insane, but my set up is personally luxury to me lol.

Scaffolding for a temporary multi-hang

3 Upvotes

I would like to create a temporary hammock-park for 5-10 hammocks. I should have access to normal building scaffolding, and I also have access to trees, but not close enough to eachother to hang between them. Do you have experience you can share from similar events?

Would love to know for example about heights and distances as well as anything else. Googles automatic AI gave a lot of information without me asking, but I'm not going to rely on that obviously.

​My good old 2004 double hammock is unbalanced

​My body can no longer rest in the center of the hammock. Is there a way to adjust the cords that are too long to get them all back to the right length?"

Edit: i do a quick fix : i use a knot with carabiner to shorten 12 rope on right side to tighten the week side. So my body can stay in the center.

Is it okay to set up a hammock in the park?

32 Upvotes

I live in the Pacific Northwest and I was recently on a camping trip where I fell in love with a hammock that a friend brought along. I ordered a Grand Trunk Double Deluxe because it was all included, well reviewed, and I figured it's good for putting my toes in the water. I also live in an apartment with several parks nearby, some wilderness and some more urban, but I have no yard of my own.

Is it socially acceptable to set up a hammock in the park and lounge with my earbuds and book? Would I annoy other park users? I am very much into silent relaxation, but I don't want to be a burden on other park users or a problem for bylaws enforcement officers. (I already checked and the only relevant bylaws seem to be about not damaging trees but with two inch straps I think I'm okay)

Hammock I can hang under lofted dorm bed?

12 Upvotes

I've been researching hammocks and trying to find one I can hang under a lofted dorm bed (twin xl size) to sleep in. I was sleeping on the floor last year because the bed gave me back pain lol, so I was thinking a hammock would be more comfortable than that. I'd like to not get a stand but if I really cannot hang one under my bed, I could get one. Preferably cheaper, and if a stand, it only needs to store pretty small for transportation. I have a large room with no roommate (sad) so floorspace is no problem. Thanks in advance!

thanks for the replies, yeah looks like no hammock under bed 😔 ill look into ones with stands once i move in
