How long with the rope last?
Depending on how well it is taken care of and your climate, a rope hammock product should last 8-15 years. How long your hammock will last is directly related to a number of factors including; amount of use, environmental conditions, frequency of care and cleaning, and quality of storage when not in use. In general, we recommend that you store your hammock in a cool dry place whenever its is not in use (don't just leave it hanging year round). When you are using it, make sure that you check the ropes periodically for mildew growth and dirt. If you find some, clean the hammock as described in the instructions you received with the hammock (use a mild soapy solution only - no bleach). Finally, make sure you use the hammock as its intended - don't put too much weight in it and don't let the hammock swing wildly putting additional stress on the rope. If you follow these simple instructions, your hammock should provide several years of relaxing comfort.
