Yellow Leaf Handwoven Hammock - Double 400 lb - Navy Blue & White

Ordered the hammock and the base. The base is really nice - can break down to 3 pieces and is easy to put together and take apart. Hammock is well made and so soft! Both me and my husband were able to sit comfortably in it and watch the kids play. You can also sit upright or lying down and both ways are just as nice. Love the carrying case too - makes it nice to store it in our camping tub and keeps it clean and together.

Beautiful design, comfortable, sturdy, everything you want in a hammock. Initially bought the smaller version, not realizing it would be so narrow and short. Larger size is perfect for me.

This is a lovely addition to our back yard! Super comfortable and attractive. It comes with a carrying case. Also, there are instructions for fixing snags are are quite easy to follow. I made the mistake of jumping in with my Birkinstocks and the buckle snagged, but it was very easily fixed! Would happily buy this again or gift it!

Reminds me when I visited Mexico.., brings back wonderful memories, great craftsmanship, sturdy, I put it away after the season and I try to take it down when it rains , I love it

Is it gorgeous? Yes. Does it shred? Also yes. I figured it was a fluke, reached out to Yellow Leaf and got a free replacement. That replacement has shredded too! The very fine cords snap at the part where the cords drape over the beam; no matter how carefully I get on it. I will be replacing it with some 40 dollar cheap product. I am so disappointed that this fair trade item did not stand up to actual life.

So, I wanted to write a review because I have been searching for the PERFECT plus size hammock for quite awhile. I’m a 5’5” female and I weigh 250lbs. I also have a 5 year old and toddler who like to hammock with mom, so I’ve been very particular about finding a durable hammock I feel secure in 🙈. I will say, I bought a cotton hammock from Amazon that had been great to us for 2 seasons but we left it out in the weather and it molded. It was fairly inexpensive and comfortable but you did feel like you were submerged in it which was okay sometimes but not always what I wanted. With that said, I bought an eno double nest. I was so disappointed. The only thing I liked about this hammock was the convenient way it would package back into itself and it was very light and already hand the carabiner clips attached. It was super roomy, but laying down in it was like being in a covered pot. It is supposed to be breathable but I found it so much less appealing than my cheap cotton hammock. The edges were so taught that it was almost painful to get out of. Now on to the yellow leaf. I saw them online and laughed out loud at the price. $200-300 for a hammock?? I was intrigued though. I thought, what could be so great about this that it’s so expensive? I realize it is made by hand and appreciate this but I still couldn’t fathom paying that much money. Well, wouldn’t you know, they’re on Amazon! I decided to buy the single hammock just to see if it was really too good to be true, I could send it right back after all. It came and I wasn’t sold. Maybe a lighter smaller person would have had a better experience with this model. It is a weave of hundreds of strings of yarn. If you pull it is is super strong and firm, but stretched to the side it opens the weave and gives you more give and room. Right where you sit would be so taught it would almost go up your crack if you didn’t roll from side to side to pull the middle apart. I decided to send it back and try the family size. After all, it was pretty cozy after you worked yourself in. Laying down, I could wrap the hammock around me like a cacoon but it didn’t overtake me in a regular position and it was actually quite heavenly feeling. But maybe where I’m not used to this style of weave, I didn’t really like that you could see my body through it. It didn’t feel like I had a lot of privacy to hide the wobbly bits. Family size arrived today and oh my word. It is perfect! Absolutely perfect. It fit me like a glove. It had just the right amount of give and it had so much more fabric that the weave wasn’t stretched out on the sides so I didn’t feel completely exposed in the smaller size. The annoying taughtness in the center was gone! I could lay sideways and the edges didn’t ride up on me so I was able to look out into the yard. It is so comfortable and fluid. It feels delicate and strong at the same time. I’m curious how it might hold up, but despite the $300 price point, I have decided to keep this one because I found my perfect hammock and hopefully we will have a lot of years together. One thing I do want to add. There are Mayan hammocks available for a third of the price. I am curious how those would compare to this. I might try one of those and re-review, but as of now, this hammock gets 4 stars because it’s not really affordably practical, but truly it is the perfect hammock 😁

Very convertible

It's a beautiful hammock. It's ok-ish as far as comfort, but I found the fabric scratchy like wool. So I looked up what it's made of. All over the description, it just says "performance yarn." You have to really dig to find out its made of acrylic. The "bed" of the hammock is short for me and I'm only 5'6". I would caution taller people to take note. Also, seems very narrow for a 2 person hammock. But I guess they get around that by setting the weight limit at 400 pounds. The strings are so thin I worry about the durability. Every little thing pulls it. Don't wear clothes with buckles, zippers, buttons, or well... anything. Maybe swim suit or au natural. But I don't think that would be comfortable. I wouldn't recommend this hammock.

The hammock is great - bought it to remind us of our Virgin Voyage! Best thing was it came three days earlier than predicted

Great
