This hammock is so relaxing, and I love the bug net it comes with.  Assembly was easy except for connecting the metal ring on the actual hammock itself.  What worked for us was two people on opposite sides of the hammock, with the metal ring split evenly in half.  Each of us picked up on the hammock until we could line up our two sides of the metal circle, and then, at the same time, we pushed down gently and evenly to click them into place.
