Quick assembly seems sturdy enough, my only complaint is the weight capacity advertised vs what comes in the box. 500 lbs advertised, the instructions say 250 lbs limit. It’s not clear if the rating is for the hammock itself or the stand. I suppose we will eventually find out! See y’all on one of the Funniest Home Videos when I either tear through the bottom of the hammock or collapse the stand if a kid decides to climb in with me.
