Weighing just 450 grams, this compact hammock offers a spacious lounging area for up to two people, making it perfect for quick rest stops on the trail.

FAQs
Can two people really fit in the hammock?

Is the hammock machine washable?
It is recommended to hand wash the hammock in cool water to protect the integrity of the polyester fabric.
Does it come with straps for the trees?
Yes, the set includes integrated ropes and hooks specifically for securing the hammock to trees.
What is the maximum weight capacity?
The maximum load capacity is 120 kg.
Is the fabric waterproof?
The polyester material is water-resistant and quick-drying, but it is not intended to be used as a waterproof shelter.
Troubleshooting
Hammock feels too low after sitting in it
Retighten the suspension ropes at the tree attachment points to compensate for initial material stretch.
Difficulty finding the right hang angle
Adjust the attachment height on the trees; a higher anchor point usually results in a better 'smile' shape for the hammock.
Hook slippage
Ensure the loop is fully seated in the hook mechanism and that the rope has sufficient tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your hammock, find two sturdy trees roughly 3 to 4 meters apart. Wrap the included ropes securely around the trees and attach the hooks to the hammock loops. Adjust the tension so that the hammock forms a gentle curve when hanging empty.
Care Instructions
- Cleaning: Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent and hang to dry; do not use harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Always ensure the hammock is completely dry before packing it into its storage bag to prevent mildew.
- Inspection: Before each use, check the integrated hooks and ropes for signs of fraying or wear.
