We understand that for traditionalists, the only acceptable rope hammock may be a cotton one. But cotton, as a natural fiber, has inherent limitations. Cotton rope requires diligent upkeep; the rope must routinely be brought in out of bad weather and great pains need to be taken to keep it clean and well-maintained.
And here you thought all that was required of you from your hammock was just to relax in it!
But with DuraCord rope, which looks and feels amazingly like cotton, you can still have all that happy sense of tradition, just without the constant attention to protecting your favorite outdoor-leisure perch from the perils of extended outdoor exposure.

I bought the Duracord Hatteras hammock back in March 2013 It's beautiful still-no rotting, no discoloration. It's kept outdoors year around and I cover it with a waterproof hammock cover during rainy weather. It is glorious to relax in my backyard with a book or look up at the trees. Every home needs one!

I had a Hatteras Hammock about 30 years ago that was beautiful and perfect. I gave it to friends to use and never got it back. This one is ok, but the cording is thinner and stretchy compared to my old one. It must be attached to the frame very tightly or else you hit the ground when you sit in it. So, the edges are very high off the ground and it looks funny. It was not the cheapest hammock on amazon so I do wish it was nicer.

4 years ago I replaced a 5 year old cotton rope hammock that had rotten and broken strands with a Duracord hammock at our Wisconsin vacation home (only used from June - September, but left out in the rain)...it still looks and feels brand new.I recently replaced our 10 year old cotton rope hammock at our primary residence in California (used from April - October, which is primarily dry weather), given that the cotton rope hammock ropes were fraying and one finally broke.Duracord is far more durable than cotton and is just as comfortable and is more resistant to rot than cotton.

We've had it for 1 year at our beachfront vacation rental. The Hatteras has had extreme weather exposure. We left it outdoors all year round and it still works perfectly. the wood looked a little dry so I put paste wax on it a few times in the last 12 months. The big question is should you buy a $50 hammock once a year or buy a $200 hammock and hope it lasts four years. Our neighbors have a $50 hammock (similar-looking but less comfortable) that's already falling apart after 12 months. Update: two and a half years after purchase our three kids including an adult size teenager we're wrestling on the hammock and broke two cords it's definitely misuse of the product but I will say close examination reveals frayed chords in many locations so I wouldn't be surprised if this hammock would have only lasted 6 or 12 months more. lf we had taken the hammock insid during the winters it would probably last more than a decade but for continuous outside use such as at our vacation rental three to four years is a reasonable expectation.

Is it more expensive than a lot of other hammocks available here? Yep but it's worth it. I had gotten a hammock and stand for my parents cottage 20 years ago from a retail store in the mall. It lasted 19 years being outside all summer in Muskoka weather and actually 1 or 2 winters outside. My over-sized posterior finally started busting through it last summer. Prior to this summer I remembered that they needed a new one so I had my Mom go check the size of the stand and she happened to notice the Hatteras name on the wood. I'm glad she did or I probably would have just bought some cheap thing that would have only lasted 2-3 years. Nobody ever regrets buying quality. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra money to get this quality hammock instead of making a $50 purchase you'll regret in a year.

Purchased July 2015 and used only in summer. Unfortunately this summer, the ropes are already fraying. Very disappointed.

This is my 3rd Hattera Hammock. The first 2 have been cotton and, since I leave them out from April to October, have lasted about 4 years each. The first gave out when the cotton rotted out, the second when the spreader bar rotted. I am hoping for better from the duracord construction. I ordered one polyester hammock but sent it back the next day as it is so stretchy as to be unusable on a metal hammock frame. (Don't waste your time) Since Hatteras no longer makes the cotton hammock I ordered the duracord model.I put the duracord (which is supposed to be 'cotton like') on my metal frame. The hardware was not as heavy as on my previous hammock and I had to go get smaller S hooks but it's heavy enough to support anything I'm going to put in it. It is stretchier than the cotton but not nearly as bad as the polyester. I had to re-adjust the hanging chains 3 times due to stretch but finally got it to the tension I wanted it. No further problems with stretch. It is as comfortable as the cotton one and I hope, longer lived.Update one year later: Still happy. The hammock sits out from Spring to Fall. It has not, after 2 seasons, discolored or shown any signs of rot. Still happy.

This hammock is made from solid, durable material with a soft, cotton-like feel. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to purchase a hammock that will last a long time. The oatmeal color is a very neutral, it is not too dark and looks more natural and balanced than the bleached white available with other brands.About the length:Nearly all hammocks on the market are 13 feet long, and this one is also advertised as such. I measured my wooden stand and it is exactly 13 feet long, however, when I began using the hammock, it became too long/too loose after it broke in. I don't think this is necessarily a problem with the hammock, but a problem in general for people who have a combination of: 1. a wooden stand which bends slightly under weight; 2. a low stand which will not keep you hanging if the hammock becomes too loose 3. heavy use/use by more than 1 person at a time. My recommendations to people experiencing these problems is to either shop for slightly shorter hammocks or hammocks made from polyester (these are tighter), or to shorten the hammock by tying knots around one or both ends of the hammock, where the ropes come together.
