Hammocks

Hammock with stand, no trees needed

A hammock with stand supports the fabric on its own frame, so you do not need trees, posts or ceiling hooks. That lets you place it anywhere that is flat, from a lawn to a deck or patio.

The largest stand-supported hammock on this page measures 110.2 inches wide, so allow room on both ends and beside it for getting in and out.

Hammock chair styles and sizes

A hammock chair is a compact, upright version that cradles you in a seat-and-back sling. Hammock chairs here are as narrow as 31.5 inches wide, which suits a balcony, porch corner or small patio.

Some hammock chairs fold, and select models come as a set of two, so a pair fits a couple of friends without adding much floor space on a small patio.

Hammock stand frames and weather care

A hammock stand needs a strong frame, and most here are aluminum, with some steel. Aluminum is naturally rust-resistant, while steel can show rust if the finish chips, so touch up scratches early.

Fabric lasts longer outdoors if you wipe it clean with mild soap and water, let it dry fully and bring it under cover in winter. A cover or a dry garage corner also keeps the frame out of standing water.

Check the bolts and joints each season, because a frame that carries your weight should never be left loose.

Portable hammock options that fold

A portable hammock is one you can move easily or put away when the season ends. Some folding models here are chairs that fold down for the garage or a closet, which suits small homes and renters with limited storage space.

Some styles add an adjustable backrest, rocking motion, cushions or a canopy for shade, so check each listing for the features you want.
