Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Traditionally, rope hammocks have been easy to clean and hard to get dirty, but often uncomfortable and never built to last. Enter DuraCord. This revolutionary new rope hammock is designed to last and as comfortable as cotton. While many colored ropes look great out of the box, they fade over a short period of time or are uncomfortable. Duracord resists fading, mildew, and rot while remaining soft and comfortable. It also resists stains and can be cleaned if needed with bleach without fading. The Pawley's Island DuraCord rope hammock is made from a continuous woven bed of three-ply, twisted rope with a soft comfortable construction. Spreader bars, made from solid oak for premium durability and strength, are triple dipped in marine spar varnish to remain beautiful over time. The bars are steam bent to enhance the gentle rocking motion. This Pawley's Island Original comes complete with the heaviest hanging hardware in the industry for strength and safety. You'll spend many relaxing hours in this well made hammock.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Comfy!, April 16, 2007

A great hammock! The antique brown color is perfect because it doesn't show dirt or marks as easilly as a white hammock would. It's a very comfortable hammock and fits very well on a hammock stand. My husband loved this as a birthday gift! If you are expecting rain, do take it inside as it takes quite awhile to dry out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Synthetic fabric is great, May 9, 2010

We bought this to replace a previous pawley hammock that disintegrated from mold and water damage. Thus far, after almost a year, the synthetic version is both more comfortable and more durable. We keep it under cover, but we are in an extremely humid climate and it hasn't shown much wear at all. If you are debating whether to get the regular cord or the duracord, I'd say it is worth the extra bit of cash.

This review is from: Pawley's Island Original Collection Large DuraCord Rope Hammock, Antique Brown (Lawn & Patio)

Well worth the asking price. I was impressed by the quality of the rig right out of the box. The wood slats appear to be very solid with zero warping and a nice smooth finish. The packaging was perfectly simple, honestly I don't see why any elaborate padding would ever be necessary. I opened up one end of the box, slid it out onto the lawn. I was then able to roll out the hammock between the two trees I had in mind (completely tangle-free), set up the eyebolts (included), hook each end, then adjust the stretch to exactly where I wanted it (a fair amount of chain is included for adjustment). Ridiculously simple and easy.

The hammock itself is amazingly comfortable in no small part due to the DuraCord material. I couldn't tell it was synthetic. It feels just like cotton or similar natural fiber. Against skin it doesn't chafe or otherwise irritate, it's actually very soft, imo.

I can't comment on its durability since I've only had it up for a month, but it is used a couple times on weekends, although not so much on weekdays. The better half likes to curl up and read in it and is perfectly content to spend a fair chunk of time just relaxing.

Excellent value for less than $120! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this versus the cheaper and less expensive hammocks out there. I really feel like I did get what I paid for.
