Colors are really reflective of the Caribbean; so bright & warm. So cool, comfortable and relaxing to lay on. Ordered a second color for a Christmas gift.

I love setting this up and wrapping myself inside on a cool summer evening. The craftsmanship is amazing! I was quite pleased by the intricacies and attention to detail. It is soft and amazingly versatile to lay in. I am 6 2 and have no problem laying in it any way I choose. It comes with ropes to tie to trees and hooks to attach the hammock with. I leave the ropes in the trees and remove the hammock when Im not using it because the wind where I live is strong and I found that it can get tangled if left to the weather. Best to take care of prized possessions like this that were made with love. I can feel the spirit of the artists who made it. It is the most peaceful and comfortable hammock Ive ever used. I highly recommend to anyone who thinks they might use something like this.

This hammock is well made, comfortable, and adds beauty to my backyard. Its large enough for both my husband and I to use together, and we do. Our favorite use of the hammock is to relax and catch up on our reading; however, be careful of the swaying motion, it encourages napping.I thank the women of Brazil for crafting my beautiful hammock. The picture does not do the piece justice and my hammock includes crochet skirts on each side, which just adds to its beauty.
