What You Should Consider Before Buying a New Hammock
If you're thinking about buying a new hammock, be sure to ask yourself the following questions in advance:
- How large or small should the new hammock be?
- Should it support one or two people?
- Do you need a stand to go with the hammock, or are there trees available to hang it from?
A single-person hammock without a spreader bar is usually available with a width of about 100 to 140 cm. The length should be your height plus around 45 cm. This ensures a comfortable lying position without the risk of slipping out when getting in, out, or moving around. Though it may appear shapeless when empty, the comfort and aesthetic of the hammock become fully apparent once it’s in use and the fabric you selected comes into play. Whether with or without a spreader bar, it can be hung between trees, from sturdy wall hooks, on a balcony railing, or in a hammock stand made of wood or metal from our online shop.
For a hammock without a spreader bar, you’ll need a mounting height of about 135 cm. Each wooden or metal hammock stand includes features to compensate for the required height. If the hammock has a spreader bar, a mounting height of just 85 cm is sufficient, as it won’t collapse inward. This allows for especially easy entry and exit — ideal for children or older adults. So before buying your ideal hammock online, consider its design and the type of suspension needed.
Proper Care for Your New Hammock and Matching Hammock Stand
Whether made from cotton or weather-resistant synthetic fabrics, you’ll find a wide variety of designs and colors for hammocks online. Side fringes on the fabric highlight the casual and popular boho look, just like pure netting. From striped patterns to bold or subtle colors like white — anything is possible when choosing your new hammock. If you opt for a hammock without a spreader bar, it’s usually machine washable. The version with a spreader bar, however, can be hand-washed and cleaned with a mild detergent. It’s important to let the hammock dry thoroughly after cleaning before using it again.
Hammock stands made of wood or metal are easy to care for. Generally, occasional wiping with a damp cloth is sufficient. During the colder months, it’s best to store the hammock and stand in a protected place — such as a garden shed, basement, or covered with a tarp. In our online shop, you’ll find a selection of hammocks in various styles. We also offer matching hammock stands, available in either wood or metal. A metal hammock stand is practical and functional, while a wooden hammock stand also serves as a beautiful eye-catcher. In addition to great hammocks for the garden, we also offer many other high-quality and affordable garden furniture items.
