Long before the Spanish arrived upon the coasts of the Yucatan Peninsula, the Maya preferred to sleep and rest in hammocks. They considered the hammock to be like the loving embrace of a mother, due to the comfortable manner in which the body is held and swung within its cradle. Maya Artists of the Yucatan seek to preserve time-honored customs while also offering stylized versions of the original Maya hammock. For them, the hammock is a work of art.

Hung this from a tree to swing my 3yo. He loves it and it cocoons him in so there's no way he'll fall out.

Love these string chairs for our big front porch that overlooks the mountains. They were simple to install, are sturdy and just the thing for looking at sunsets and stars. You can sit in them as is, add a pillow or stretch way out like a hammock. We had similar ones years ago and loved them and I recently priced them again...about triple what I paid for these! And as always Overstock got them to us in short order. Thanks for making seating on the porch comfortable!

We got this hammock for a certain spot in our backyard and it fits perfectly! Blends in nicely with backyard surroundings, and is super comfy to relax and read a book in. I'd definitely recommend it to friends.

Very Uncomfortable

I love the way this hammock looks, and it seems to be well constructed, but it is very uncomfortable. I am 5' 10" 135 lbs and the bottom edge of the hammock cuts into the back of my knees when I sit in it causing an incredibly painful rope burn and cutting off the circulation in my legs. The top edge folds up around my head and pushes my head forward which isn't a comfortable way to sit. This hammock would probably be great for kids, but I can't imagine how it could be comfortable for adults, maybe for very small adults. I am sad that it didn't live up to all the good reviews I read before I purchased.

Purchased this for my wife to hang on our porch. I thought it was overpriced for a rope swing but was pleasantly surprised when it arrived. She loves it. I've not been able to sit in it yet, lol.
