I bought this instead of a traditional hammock, because I thought I might use it more.  I really love the bright orange color and the pop it gives my deck and back yard.  It is super comfortable.  Allows a more upright position for reading or visiting.  The instructions were a bit difficult to follow, and a couple of the nuts did not fit the bolts at all.  We hope the connections that did happen will hold the item altogether.  Had an initial delivery issue with major damage to the shipment, and customer service could not have been better about shipping out a second item.  I am really glad I spent the money.  It was well worth it.
