Do you have a hammock? Do you use it? Do you recommend it?

[cultkid]

Love to get one for the garden
I wanted to get one for my husband before but I'm still not sure if he would use it
He has said sometimes he likes them and other times he's said he wouldn't use it

This thread is quite old now so some of the suggestions may be out of date, but if you’ve landed here looking for hammock recommendations, we’ve recently updated our best hammocks page with lots of great options, as tried and tested by Mumsnet users. We hope you find it useful.

We have one between two apple trees and I love it! Great for snuggling in with the kids and reading together, the oldest likes to read to himself in there too which is great to have him in the garden with us rather than grumping in the house. We got a super cheap one as I never remember to bring it in right away once it gets rainy...it's now on its third year and still going strong.

Maybe a really expensive one is flatter? A wide one is better - you lie in it diagonally or cross-wise.

Are you still in that curved back position Mere or can you lie flat on the double one? After a few minutes in ours, I start to feel like I've spent a few hours hunched over a computer.
