Well Made,

This review is from: Hammock Pawleys Island Tree Straps (Lawn & Patio)
Strong strap, good heavy hardware. If you use it (or anything else) on pine trees, you'll have to clean it up.
Regarding another reviewer's comment: no, you're not stuck with too long or too short a tail. Here's what to do. Begin by holding the loop on the tree and wind around the tree until you get to the ring end. Stop at the "too long" setting, pass the ring through the loop, and continue around the tree IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. At some point you'll have the length you need - however it will probably be pointing in a wrong direction. Note where it's pointing! Now undo it all and begin again, but this time start the loop end at a point on the tree where, after you've wrapped it all, the ring end will point in your desired direction (toward the hammock). If you think you'll use the same tree again, mark the starting point with a small notch on the tree and hanging the hammock will be a snap.

Great product BUT!,

This review is from: Hammock Pawleys Island Tree Straps (Lawn & Patio)
This is only my second review, but I had to write as this product is great, BUT has a fatal flaw. Replace the S hooks immediately (before hammock use) with carabiners. If two people are in the hammock and one gets up to leave then the S hook can easily pop out of the ring and the hammock falls to the ground. That happened to me when my husband got up and I hit the ground hard. NO fun and easily fixed with closed carabiners. The product is great otherwise, but you really have to figure out how to set it up -- sort of a geometry problem, but doable.

Worked exactly as I needed,

This review is from: Hammock Pawleys Island Tree Straps (Lawn & Patio)
I have the hammock, and I have two trees that are just barely sufficiently far apart for the hammock. After a full season of use (I took them down after we had a few weeks of snow), things are still working well. They help up fine with no serious signs of wear on either the straps, or the walnut trees. (did I mention that I have been lounging under a whole bunch of walnuts?)
The most difficult part is to figure out: 1. How high to place the straps so that the hammock will hang as you desire. 2. Precisely how to initially position the strap around the tree so that it will be the perfect length. The strap works by wrapping around the tree. You will probably lose 15 minutes figuring out exactly how you need to position the straps (that is how long I took anyway). It then did just fine with a whole lot of abuse, including the neighbor kids that like to really swing on the hammock.... These are great straps!
