This new hammock (100% cotton, extra large) is smaller and less comfortable than my old LLBean one which I had for 12 years. Never should have given it away.
Chose the XL since it was only slightly larger than the L. Beautiful, white, soft cotton cording and studly wooden slats. Shipped to my doorstep in a flash. Fair price for the quality.
I've just bought a hammock for my son's new home. We've had one for more than 10 years and it never seems to wear out! It's his favorite spot at our house so he wanted one of his own.
I recently ordered the cotton hammock and it was terrible so I reordered the polyester thinking it would be more sturdy. No difference. When I got in either hammock I almost went to the ground. The rope on both hammocks was much thinner than my previous two LL Bean hammocks. The hammock seemed cheap and had very little body to it. I have been a long time Bean customer and I sincerely hope that this is not an example of the quality now coming from LL Bean. I am a customer because Bean means quality and a name that I trust. Now I have doubts.
