Guide: Buy the right hammock
What material should a hammock be made of?
Hammocks can be made from a variety of materials. Silk, cotton or parachute material are the most suitable.
If you would like to lie on a fluffy hammock, we recommend that you buy a cotton hammock. Cotton is very suitable for the production of a hammock and convinces due to the fluffy fibers.
Which hammock is best for children?
It’s a fact: children love hammocks!
If you have children or like to romp around with children, bring a portable hammock from BB Sport with you on your next trip to the park, the playground or wherever you want to take it with you. The kids will love playing in the hammock, and most likely taking a nap there too.
If you grew up with a hammock in your garden or you know someone who had a hammock in the garden, then you probably have fond memories of playing in the hammock with siblings or friends. A hammock and the feeling of being lifted off the floor simply has something that makes children infinitely curious and playful.
Most of these funny memories, however, are likely to be that a worried parent always keeps a watchful eye in the hammock and has constantly reminded you of how easily you fall out and injure yourself. Tangling and getting caught in the rope have certainly happened to you too.
Which hammock is best for sleeping?
Each hammock has different properties, so many hammocks are made of a particularly soft fabric, so lying in such a hammock feels all the more gentle and relaxed.
It is not possible to say exactly which hammock is best suited for you to sleep, after all everyone has their preferences.
Basically, we can speak from experience that hammocks made of particularly soft fabric are very comfortable for sleeping.
In addition, the hammock should be both very wide and very long, so that you can find space in it and maybe two of you can spend a romantic time.
FAQ: Frequently asked questions about the hammock answered
How do you attach a hammock to the tree?
If you’ve bought a hammock without a stand, you’re probably wondering how best to attach the hammock to a tree. Here’s a quick guide on how to easily attach your hammock to a tree and enjoy the sun:
- Wrap your belt around the tree
- Pass the end of the strap through the metal ring and tighten it
- Pass the end of the strap through the hammock eyelet
- Attach the carabiners to the end of the strap
- Hook the snap hook onto the metal ring
- Enjoy your hammock
How high should you hang a hammock?
A classic hammock should be about half the length of the hammock, roughly according to the rule of thumb, so the hammock can sag nicely, which it should definitely do.
The suspended hammock should then resemble a banana. In the case of a rod hammock, however, the height of the hammock should only be a quarter of the full length, and it should also be noted that when hanging the rod hammock, it must also hang tight.
How long should a hammock be?
A hammock should be at least 200 cm long so that you can lie on it without any problems.
If the hammock is shorter than 200 cm, it may happen that your whole body, depending on the size, cannot lie completely on it.
Therefore, when buying a hammock, pay attention to the length of the hammock, not the total length, because the total length can refer to the frame and the hammock together.
How wide should a hammock be?
If only you are supposed to lie on the hammock, a total width of 100 cm is sufficient.
If you want to buy a hammock for two, we recommend a minimum width of 140 cm, so that you have enough space for two and do not have to fight for the coveted hammock.
Which knot should I use on the hammock?
Hammocks will be a dream alternative to bed for those who want to experience a unique place to relax, sleep, read, camp or even sail.
Since hammocks are our bed replacement, it is important that they are of stable quality so that we are not afraid of falling on the floor as soon as we step on them.
Aside from the quality of the hammock materials, the way a hammock is tied to a base plays an important role in the overall safety of the hammock. No matter how durable a hammock is supposed to be, it can still find its way to solve itself.
So it’s definitely worth being able to tie a right knot. We recommend the so-called Palstek knot at this point.
This knot can be used as an extension of carabiners, rings or chain links of a hammock.
Does a hammock help against back pain?
In fact, people suffer from back pain after spending a long time on the hammock. But that’s because most people are stiff and firm in the hammock.
If you lie crosswise or diagonally and completely relaxed in the hammock, you do not have to worry about having back pain after lying on a hammock.
So correct hanging in a hammock helps very well against back pain. It is not for nothing that in many countries around the world, such as Colombia or Mexico, sleeping in a hammock is normal among the population.
To lie harder, depending on your taste, you have to stretch the hammock as tight as possible. Anyone who also has problems falling asleep in a hammock should be easy to rock, because a slight swing promotes falling asleep on a hammock.
Conclusion
Buying a hammock for the garden is definitely worthwhile. While lying in the hammock you not only forget your normal everyday life, all the stress is also relieved.
Time just feels relaxed and carefree when lying and lingering in a hammock. Depending on your taste, a suitable hammock can be found for every person and the time of dreams can begin.
In addition, two people can fit in a lot of hammocks at the same time, since not everyone has a hammock, romantics will certainly have found a pleasant retreat there.
We wish you a relaxed and carefree time in your new second bed!
