Hammocks fall into three general categories-rope, fabric, and string, and two subcategories--those with spreader bars and those without. We will look at these below :· Mayan string hammocks and Nicaraguan double sprang woven string hammocks without spreader bars provides the ultimate in floating comfort, and hot weather ventilation. Indoors they will last for a decade, outdoors, one or two years if not cared for. Fabric Hammock from Brazil are extremely comfortable, though less ventilated than the string hammocks. These hammocks often make ideal beds for all season use. Since they are made of cotton they fare better if not left out in the weather.
There are different styles of wooden hammock stands that are suitable for different styles of hammocks. For example, hammocks that utilize spreader bars to keep the hammock bed open and flat are most suitable for the "arc" type of wooden hammock stand. These "arc" style hammock stands are almost artful in their grace and elegance in my opinion. Another type of Hammock that may utilize a wooden hammock stand is the chair hammock swing. In particular, if they are designed for two people, they require a wooden hammock stand that is an overhead, or cross-beam arch style. This would be considered a specialty type of hammock stand and would not be suitable for any other type of hammock. But it is a aesthetically pleasing way to hang your hammock and would definitely add some charm to your back patio or back yard.
