It's really nice its by Kelsyus. Its portable and you can fold it up and carry it as a backpack. It is a little low to the ground, but it works well. I just came in to get a beverage, but I'm outside listening to RM on my Stiletto, and laying in the hammock, doesn't get much better than this!!
dicks has it for 30 bucks right now. it normally retails for 70 bucks!! It is not recommended for anyone over 180. The company says 250 but after reading reviews not over 180 lbs.

We have a hammock in the yard that stands on it's own with a steel stand that you put together. Well we came home from a party last summer and the wife wanted to lay in it and look at the stars so I moved it from under the tree not knowing the stand came slightly apart. So when she went to lay down it collapsed and smack her in the head giving her a nice cut above her eye. I laugh at first then realized something was wrong. We had to go to the ER and have her head glued shut. We ended up back on the patio having a couple of drinks and laughing about it.

Yes, but it stretches out for your feet really nice.

It's the "XChair"
I think you can find it for less other places, (I did), but at least you know what your looking for.

Well done on making it look like an accident.

I have a rope one with the spacers for home and a woven one from kirklands for when I'm out and about and the mood strikes. There is never any telling when you might need and emergency hammocking.
