Hammock chairs are a great way to just relax the afternoon away. Get comfy in the hammock with a book or a crossword puzzle and before you know it hours will have passed and you will still be comfortable. The hanging hammock chair is great for trees, porches or apartment balconies,.
In order to keep the chair hammock from completely closing up on you, each one has a bar that the rope or fabric is suspended from. This creates the soft “back” of your chair while the “sides” then fold up around you. The bar can range in length from three feet to almost four feet.
A swing chair like this can generally be suspended from any roof beam or stud in your house with a ceiling hook or even outside from a tree. Or you can purchase a hanging chair stand and use your hammock that way. The weight limit is usually around 250 pounds for the hammock itself regardless of how you hang it.
These are a great addition for your screened in porch or even to spice up your child’s bedroom as they start moving from little child to teenager.

Caring For Your Hammock Chair
Cotton hammock swings can usually be either machine washed or hand washed but should not be put in the dryer. Before storing your hammock chair during the off-season, be sure to wash it and thoroughly dry it. You can use a weather resistant outdoor bag to store it or even leave it hanging somewhere in your garage or basement where it will remain dry and out of the way.
