Product Description

Amazon.com Review

You'll have no problem getting your recommended daily servings of fruits and vegetables with this attractive beechwood fruit and veggie hammock sitting on your countertop. The open-weave net is suspended from the ends of the beechwood "bowl" exactly like a regular hammock. The open-air design keeps fragile fruit from getting crushed or bruised, and helps food ripen more evenly. This hammock is large enough to hold your whole week's supply of produce and makes an attractive centerpiece on the kitchen table. The net can be hand washed; wipe wood with a damp cloth. --Doree Armstrong

I found the design and functionality of this quite nice, but I rapidly discovered that this banana hammock could not comfortably fit my produce. I've kept using it to store walnuts and pecans however.

5.0 out of 5 stars does the job, March 17, 2008

I actually got this because I found the concept to be a bit humorous, but it has turned out to be functional as well. It holds quite a bit of food and is larger than I thought it would be. I also liked that it was easy to assemble.

This review is from: Prodyne FH-300 Beech wood Fruit and Veggie Hammock (Kitchen)

I bought this product. It does the job, provided that the one that you get holds up. Both of the ones that I bought, the posts kept turning if the food's weight distribution was 'too much' for this cheaply made product. If you overtighten the post screws, then the product is shot. On the two that I had to buy for necessity, I had to put a small finishing nail on both sides of each post in order to ensure that the posts will not turn. I need a third one, but, I may take the hammock ropes that come with this cheap product and make my own 3-tiered fruit hammock. I can make a square one (so that I can use all 3 of the same-lengthed rope hammocks), and reinforce the corners and base so that it can withstand the load. I will try to make it decorative as well. Maybe an elliptical interior shape of the wood, with a square-ish outer wood look.

Overall, it works. But, it sucks, because it's cheaply made.
