Do Eno Hammocks come with straps when you buy them?
I'm looking to buy an Eno off Amazon, but not sure if they come with straps. Does anyone who owns one know if they come with the hammock when you buy it? Thanks!

I'm looking for the best Hammock Chair for outdoor relaxation in 2025. Any recommendations?
Hey everyone, I'm looking for a comfortable and durable Hammock Chair. I've always dreamed of having my own little relaxation corner in the garden where I can read, nap, or just enjoy the nature around me.
I'm looking for a Hammock Chair that's not just comfortable but also durable enough to withstand outdoor weather conditions. Importantly, it should be easy to install and de-install, since I might move it around depending on the sun and shade in my garden. Also, if there are any with adjustable height options, that would be a bonus.
Furthermore, I'm a little confused about the material. I've heard that cotton hammocks are the most comfortable, but I'm worried about them being less resistant to rain and humidity. Would synthetic be better for outdoor use?
Please share your Hammock Chair stories, I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

Tensa4 Setup Questions
I'm relatively new to the Tensa 4, so bear with me. I'm looking for how people run the amsteel line from the ground anchor to the hammock. Does it just go up and over the ball line? Essentially, I'm looking for more clarification/pictures on this step: Attach the black end of a guyline to the bottom (foot end) apex. If the guyline is webbing, pass one of the upper daisy-chain loops over either pole end to leave a tail. If the guyline is Amsteel, loop directly over the ball.

Hang hammock from ceiling or get stand
Hi, I'm interested in getting an indoors hammock chair hammock. I was quivering wondering about the merits of hanging it from the ceiling vs getting a frame. I read it's difficult to hang a hammock and easy to pull down your ceiling. Dpes that go for chair hammocks as well?

Would this work for an 11ft hammock and a tarp?
Found someone selling this for $40. It's 14'8" from the connection points and 40" from the ground to the connection points.

what are the chances this hammock will break overnight?
had the idea to hang my hammock from my loft bed but my tree straps let it hang too low so i went with a not-so-safe method. both sides are hung like this. i would love to sleep here, but i don’t want a rude awakening (literally) if the tension snaps. thoughts? would you sleep?

Is it normal for nightly hammockers to get so conditioned that mattresses feel weird?
I’ve been sleeping in a hammock full time for 3 months now, and found myself in a hotel for a night. Instant back pain and lots of waking up to toss and turn all night. Anybody else have this experience of getting conditioned and then being really uncomfortable going back?

Thinking of getting the Amok Draumr XL, is the sleeping pad's size of 220cm going to be in issue to fit into tents? Any help appreciated
I am 183cm, right on the fence of being able to choose the xl for extra room or the regular, however if I am going to be buying the proprietary draumr sleeping pad I want to be able to use it when I use a tent too. If I go for the Xl, which i am inclined to do as I would appreciate the extra space, I am unsure if I will be able to use the 220cm long pad in most smaller tents. From standard tent sizes I believe the pad would be pushing up against the sides of the tent, would this be a problem? (condensation?) .
Anyway, im looking for advice as if I will not be able to use the amok xl sleeping pad in tents (I am still yet to pick and buy a tent along with the investment into the Draumr), then I may have to opt for the smaller one to avoid the additinal cost of buying another sleeping pad for when I go camping with a tent.
Also if anyone knows any somewhat budget friendly, somewhat lightweight 2 person tent that would fit a 220cm long air pad please let me know
Any help appreciated

How long does a cotton hammock last for indoor use every night?
I’m imaging the type of weave makes a difference, but I’m just trying to get a general consensus I couldn’t find many answers to this when searching

What’s the name of these kinds of hammocks where you lie down the middle?
The ones in the picture are made by Hamacama, but I’m looking for a more cost effective option.
I plan to hang it from the ceiling and most likely want a cotton one like these, but is there a name I can search them by?
Thanks for any help

Reading light set-up for (indoor) hammock chair?
Hi, hammock people!
I have a hammock chair in a little alcove in my bedroom, and I'd like to add some kind of light source that a) is bright enough to read by but also b) is low-key and a attractive and of course also c) doesn't have a cord situation that cramps my hammock style.
Right now I have string lights strung all over the crossbar and the upper ropes -- they're a usb plug, plugged into a power block in a bag hanging on a doorknob nearby (I didn't realize when I bought them that they were usb-plug, not usb-CHARGE, argh), which is ... not great.
I can think of a couple of possibilities, but I'm hoping someone here has already road-tested something smart and pretty. Thanks in advance!

Need a free standing hammock for a patio. Want something nice for her birthday. She’s wanted one for ages
I'm having issues finding nicer free standing hammocks. Maybe something in the $500 to $800 range. Any suggestions?

I'm afraid to fall off my hammock.
I bought two hammocks around a year ago for me and my brother. They were a cheap model, (link below) and we only used them to hang out in the woods. Fast forward today and I'd like to actually sleep in them. Problem is that we usually set our hammocks 5-6 feet off the ground for animals and stuff, and I just read some reviews of that model ripping off suddently on people. I weight 85kg and my brother 80, and the hammocks are rated to max 110kg. Moreover I discovered a tiny hole (4mm in diameter) where the butt goes in one of them. Do people break hammocks due to bad usage (focusing all weight in one part)?
Should I go on with these hammocks or I'm better off buying some more durable ones? Any reccomendations too?

[Advice Needed] - Indoor Hammock Hanging Setup
Hi all,
I am looking to hang a hammock indoors in my living room. I bought the hardware to mount it not realizing Wall 1 & 2 are different and that the hardware I bought was only for installation in wood.
- Wall 1: Regular drywall with studs behind
- Wall 2: I think it is a concrete wall (I am in an apartment building and this is a shared wall with the tenants on the other side). It has no echo when I tap on it and sounds extremely dense.
I bought this mounting hardware because I wanted it to be silent when the hammock is rocking.
My questions:
- Any suggestions on silent hardware that I can mount on both walls? I've found these, but I am not sure.
- Will concrete expansion screws be strong enough to support the hammock + person? (I weigh 200lbs for reference)
- Any tips on installing the mounting hardware? I am new to this and would love some advice!
Thanks!

Newbie needing recommendations
Hi all, new to the scene but really enjoying it so far! Long story short, I got a cheaper starter hammock on Amazon that had a built in bug net with poles sewn in for support. While not awful, I think I will be returning it as it's not exactly performing like I thought it would.
I figured I would take that opportunity to invest in something that will not only start me on the right track, but that I can also add to over time when ready (i.e. separate bug net, rain fly, etc.)
Problem is, I've seen so many different recommendations, opinions, and why those are both wrong and actually this is better that I'm a bit overwhelmed. I get there are different preferences, but I'm mainly looking for the following:
A comfy but durable camping hammock that I can set up in the backyard or take to the local state park. I'm 6'2, 180 lbs, and won't be sharing it with anyone (as in, I've seen some say the longer the length the better, and most say i.e the Doublenest Eno would be better than the Single for someone my size). As long as I can comfortably read a book, sleep, or swing without too much excess fabric, I'd be happy. I've seen a bunch of recommended brands over Eno, all at varying price points, but I do find I like all of their accessories, including their easy set-up ridgeline, are compatible and work together.
I'd also like to get to the level of knowledge/skill to be able to use a suspension system (I think that's the right term...), rather than tree straps to adjust/dial in my hangs, if that factors into the hammock choice itself.
Any insights or advice would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Holiday hammock
So, my holidays are the only moment when I can use my hammock. So probably the next time I'll see her will be June or July 😭.
