I was so excited for this to get here for my girls. Well, it finally arrived. And I am so very disappointed. This thing smells really bad. Like, as soon as the package was opened, a strong, STRONG, mold/mildew smell just took over the room. Ive washed it and washed it. Hung it outside, sprayed it down, and I can't get the smell out 
 out.Its so bad of a smell and strong, that the girls can't even use it. It's hanging up outside...again. Other than that, the hammock is really pretty and feels like it's pretty durable. But I don't know. I ha ent sat on or in it yet.
