    I have been using this hammock stand for over 3 years now and it is still like new. Every spring I take it out of the storage and spray bare metal parts and screw holes with WD40 rust preventer spray. That’s it for maintenance. The reassembly takes literally 3 minutes and it stays outdoors on a sunlit patio in all weather all season long until mid October. There’s barely any rusting and it is very easy to polish off before storage. Outer frame is protected by very durable powder coating in pleasing dark green color.

    The stand is very heavy which is good since it adds stability and allows moderate swinging. The best part, of course, is how you can adjust it to accommodate literally any hammock out there from the longest to the deepest varieties. There are extender tubes available but I haven’t found a hammock yet that would require them.

    This is a five star hammock stand. The only nitpick I have is that I wish the bolts that attach the stand to it’s legs were made of brass. Alas, they are regular steel ones with protective plastic caps and you have to watch out to prevent them from over-rusting.

    I purchased this hammock stand after looking at several other models and brands. This one was an excellent choice for my family. It has several features that set it apart from many others: it assembles and disassembles easily; it is adjustable enough to fit many different sizes of hammocks; it is very sturdy, and is very well designed overall. I highly reccomend this stand to anyone who wants a metal model. Others I have looked at wouldn’t last a year in my opinion. This one will probably get passed down to the kids.

    I got this last year for my birthday, and have really enjoyed using it. It is heavy, but that gives it stability. The hammock attachment is simple yet secure. To top it all off, when I carelessly broke it (at the hammock attachment point), I called Byer and talked to a real person, who sold me the part for only $5. Now I am a loyal customer and would recommend their products to anyone for their design, craftsmanship and customer service.

    Wow! what a surprise. This stand is made very well and went together easily. I was amazed at it’s weight. I didn’t think it would be that heavy. We definitely got our monies worth. My husband was happy that it had adjustments so we could use different hammocks with it. Our son loves laying around on the hammock and I know he’s safe.

    Item arrived on time and in excellent condition however, I had to do some drilling on two of the pre-drilled holes because the screws would not thread properly. It was a minor repair but for the price I paid, I shouldn’t have had to do it. Quality control good be a bit better at the factory.

    The stand is great and works wonderfully.
