i have trees 10 feet apart - will this hammock work for me? maybe if i hang it higher, but will it sag to be uncomfortable?

I think you could probably make it work- I don't remember how far apart our trees were when we used this hammock, as we've moved since and no longer have a place for a hammock :-(.

This stand works great with both of my 10' and 12' hammocks. If your hammock came with an extender chain it will help with finding the right height for you. On the down side, rust does develope so be sure to give your stand a spray with some kind of protectant against the elements. I hope this helped you, and enjoy your hammock.

Im unfamiliar with that hammock. From the pictures I looked at, I would have to say no. I think with a bit of creativity you could come up with something to work just like the skins, maybe something like the bags that lawn chairs come in. ?? Just a thought. Good luck.

My Hammock stand measures 13.5' from welded hook to hook. The chain hooks are 11.5' apart for it to hang above ground a bit when occupied. From there you should be able to figure out your needs. 11.5' stretch is minimum to keep loaded hammock from dragging the ground.

Sorry, I misread the question and thought you were talking about another hammock I bought. I have not used this hammock and can't tell if it would hold. However, looking and feeling the fabric and would guess that YES it would.

The Hammocls Rada are actually long and big. My hammock stand is too small and I had to tie knots in the ends to make it fit. Strong trees 9-10' apart will be perfect. I'm 6'3", 220lbs, and there is plenty of room for more!

Hi Carolyn,I purchased two of these last summer for full sized hattaras hammocks. These stands are substantial and will support a lot of weight. The stands are not adjustable. However, my hammocks have a chain at each end and I can put different links of chain on the hammock stand hooks and that adjusts the tension of the hammock and the amount of sag I get when someone lies down in it. They are very nice and substantial stands.

We use an Eno two-person hammock and it works great. Should work with an 11 foot hammock, just need to add a longer chain.

The length of the stand from hook to hook is 9' 5". It may fit a little tight, but I don't know how much "stretch" you would have in your hammock.

Not sure. I know the hammock is really long, so I would be doubtful it would work with a stand. It also relaxes quite a bit, making it longer. We wound up stringing it between 2 trees... and then had find 2 other trees that were farther apart as the hammock relaxed with use. However, I will say I have been very satisfied with this hammock. We left it out all last summer (rain or shine) and it still looks great. The ropes are also soft.

It requires a minimum of 5 feet from the hanging ring to the bottom of the hammock - and that would mean you would not have your feet swinging clear, which is probably not an issue, we always put our feet up in the swing. Try to get a height on the loft bed to see if you will have five feet, if so, I'd go for it :)

It depends on the height that you have it. I hung mine in my room. The anchor points are 7 feet from ground, the d distance between points are about 14 feet but the hammock is about 12 feet. At about a 30 degree angle I sit a bit over 18 inches from floor. If you use a 15 foot distance stand out may be really close to the ground and another comment I read said something along those lines. I sleep in my jumbo hammock every day and am thinking of getting another for camping. Good luck and happy swinging!

Yes probably will sag. Theres a 15 foot hammock stand that u can buy that fits perfectly

No it should not sag. I hung it on a fence with posts approx. that far apart. If for some reason you have a problem you could always run a wire across the top in the green to keep it straight.

It would certainly fit within a 15 foot distance... Ours is hung between a post and a wall that are 15 feet apart... But, I'm not sure the hammock stand would be tall enough to keep you off the ground. It does sag a good bit in the center.

Not sure!!!! Your seat area in the back is a large area- hammock might not have enough room from front headrest to rest where it attaches too!!!

Mine was 12 ft I think, and it's stretched to the max. It's made of criss crossed cords though, which stretch quite a bit, I don't know if fabric behaves the same way.The two diagonal bars actually have some wiggle room so they will move towards each other when the hammock pulls on them.
