My daughter says it’s the best purchase I have ever made. I wouldn’t really know as I can’t seem to get much time in the hammock, my daughter and her boyfriend love it though! I live in an area where winds are extreme at times, and no problem. The stand is sturdy and the hammock is well made. Assembly time...practically no time...hallelujah! It fits two people comfortably, and if you’re soloing it, you have an instant cocoon. Just a great item to have! I love it!
