Island Bay Nautical Quilted Hammock

Q1: Is this product suitable for hanging between two trees - and what additional accessories needed to do as such?

A: Yes - you can hang this via a tree vs. using a stand. To do so you have a couple options: Tree straps - hang around the tree and allow you to adjust the height easily - item #s: NE003 or EC148. Hanging kit - USI018 - has an eyelet that screws directly into the tree w/ chain and S hooks to hang.

Q2: Is product mildew resistant? How long to dry when it rains?

A: This hammock would not be considered mildew resistant. The fabric is rated to be used outdoors and can hold up to the elements. Granted, this hammock would need to be cared for to extend it's lifespan and ideally for any hammock, we recommend taking down in poor weather and always dried out completely vs. ever storing when damp to prohibit against mildew. There isn't necessarily a set time for the hammock to dry but I'd bank on a couple hours minimum - and the hammock needs to be air dried, tumble dryers are a no go. This is a good hammock but if you have concerns on humidity, sea salt, and mildew - this would not be my top pick. If you are looking for a solid hammock - fabric or want the look of the original hammock you picked, look for Sunbrella hammocks. Sunbrella is an awesome material that's specifically rated to repel moisture so it does well to hold off mildew + it's rated to keep it's color against the sun's UV rays as well. Check out item#s: TOH011, AL530, TOH008, and TOH033. Quick Dry hammocks are similar but while they dry quickly may not have the longevity of sunbrella and don't typically repel mildew quite as well. If you are open to rope hammocks - then polyester is your friend. Rope comes in cotton or polyester - cotton = comfort but not great for the conditions you are listing. Polyester however stands up extremely well to humidity, salt air and doesn't absorb as much water so mildew is kept to a minimum. For rope, item#s: HIB01 or HIB03 are our perennial favorites.

Q3: my hammock stand is only 10' long. do you have any hammocks with spreader bars for this stand?

A: We have 2 rope - TOH017 and DP022 - both are suited for small space.

Q4: I have a hammock stand the length from the hook on one side to the hook on the other side is 11.3 what size hammock would fit this stand?

A: Check out TOH017 or DP022 - which are small space hammocks.

Q5: I already have a hammock stand and I would like to order this hammock without the stand. Can I do that?

A: This item includes the Hammock, Hanging Hardware, and the pillow; it does not include the stand.
