Works great.So easy and quick to put up. I was pleased with the sturdiness. I love that it is easy to take apart and travel with. We will be taking it to the lake this weekend. I have a feeling I’ll need to purchase another one for myself because the kids are kinda taking it over. LolQuick n easy. At first I was confused, thought maybe some parts missing. Looked at picture, once it’s put together it’s long enough for hammock. Set up in seconds flat, turned a few knobs. So far it’s holding my heavy bum:). Looking forward to Chai tea to watch sunset this weekend. Thank you for superb product!Set this up in my spare room, great job holding hammock, portable and fits my lowe's parachute cloth double hammock. Purchased it so that when I go camping I can throw the stand in the back of the van and use it if the site does not have tree's available for my straps. Have used it for sleeping in my hammock for a couple of weeks as a test before I take it on the road.There were minor signs of rust which is a concern where I live. The stand did have some scratches when arrived so I had to touch it up with spray paint to prevent rust. The size is perfect I’m 6’0 and I have room on both sides and it supports my weight of 220lbs although I am about 3 inches from the base rod below.I loved how quick it was to assemble and disassemble to store for winter. No tools needed and it comes with a bag to store it in! Very sturdy too!I purchased a hammock that was too short for the stand I already had so I needed a new one. This was perfect! Does not take up a lot of space and fits my new hammock. Would definitely recommend.This stand is super easy to put up. We travel full time in an RV so each time we stop for a couple of weeks it's the first thing we put up. I bought a very inexpensive hammock at Grocery Outlet, only five dollars, and it works perfectly. Easy to put together and very sturdy. It's kinda heavy for me to do alone but I'm really weak. HAHA! It is easy to break down and put back into the bag too.
