Shipped and arrived promptly. I was expecting it to arrive with caribiners, but there are laced metal hooks on the end. This is more geared towards pre-booked hammocks on stands, not for use with trees. Fortunately, I had hammock straps from a previous hammock I was able to use and thread through the small(ish) hooks, for use. It seems comfortable, has a slight potato sack smell. I would order this again, especially if they update the description. So far, after a week, seems to be holding up well. Very large, enough for a large frame man, has already held three twelve year old, no problems.
