My hammock stand bent terribly out of shape. I've replaced the bolts, and hope the dents in the frame won't cause the new bolts to also bend.
The largest weight I've had it support are two fifteen-year-old girls -- possibly a combined weight of 225? Seems like the frame should've outlasted four months and two teens...

I got stand together with the large green/white stripes hammock as a package deal with free shipping. The stand and hammock arrived within a week on the same day in 2 different packages. The stand is easy to put together. It is very sturdy and easily hold 2 average size people. Moving is easy if you have 2 people. The actual stand is larger than I expected, it is around 15' long and pretty heavy. The roman arc shape is a nice touch. I check prices on specialty hammock store and they are almost twice as much as the price I paid before shipping.

It is a great stand. The biggest factor for me was motility. As the sun passes a certain section of trees in my backyard, I can easily move the stand to sit comfortably in the shade.

It is very sturdy, attractive, and the shape is pleasing. It is larger than it appears in the picture, and accomadates a fifteen foot hammock.

It comes with these "Z" hooks that makes it incredibly easy to take the hammock down and put it up again. Moreover, assembly took a matter of minutes - you'll need a flathead screwdriver and a 9/16th ratchet/wrench. One person assembly.

I happened to catch the stand on sale, which of course sweetened the incentive significantly. The super saver shipping only took a few days to arrive. However, the stand was not in stock and it took some time to "re-order" from the manufacturer.

Overall, if you don't mind the potential wait - you will adore the time you spend reading/relaxing in the hammock you obtain to go with this stand.
