How to Choose a Hammock Chair

A hammock chair, also called a hanging chair, is a hammock that is suspended from a chair stand. It takes up less space than a regular hammock because a person sits in the chair more or less vertically.

Instructions

Difficulty: Challenging

1. Choose the specific style of hammock to choose. The standard size has a spreader bar and is suitable for outdoor use. The indoor style takes up less room by not using a spreader bar and a double-hammock chair is wide enough for two people.
2. Select the right fabric. Cotton is the most comfortable and the most popular for indoor use. Polyester has higher durability against humidity, salt water and ultra-violet radiation, although it is not as flexible as cotton.
3. Select a quilted hammock for cooler climates. Two layers of fabric are used instead of rope and separated with fiber filler.
4. Make sure the hammock you choose comes with a cloth, woven rope or other material with an O ring which will allow the hammock to be hung from a chair stand. The chair stand should be made with the hammock to ensure they fit together.
5. Separate the sides of the hammock with a spreader bar to keep it open and maintain its chair shape. These hammock chairs are usually hung to a tree or an outdoor stand. Hammock chairs without spreader bars will need to be hung higher because they will be deeper.
