There is absolutely no way in the world I could extricate myself from that chair. None. Ever.
It really doesn't even look comfortable.

Mmmmm....sorry....it doesn't look all that comfy to me, either...

Well, looks like a kind of hammock - so while it doesn't look comfie in the pic to me, it just might be. But don't see myself buying one. Leslie, you'll have to chime in on the comfort factor. Or Sarah, if you tried it out?

I've seen these at A&C shows....I am thinking of rebuilding my deck around the pond and waterfall, adding a hot tub and hammock...will be nice in early spring, fall and winter... mosquitoes and flies too bad in the summer...This of course depends on whether my brother wants to tackle this project with my help...

I like the idea of a hammock but many places have rules about tying to trees and such. Thought about making a rig to hook to my 5th wheels pin box and the hitch receiver of the pickup to string my hammock. The tripod is interesting but there is no way I would be able to get in and out without killing myself.

There is a limit to just how ridiculous I'm willing to look. Reminds me of those dolls......Cabbage Patch. Don't really know why.
I'm sure it's working for Sharon. She's a braver soul than I.

I'm afraid that if I could even get in that chair, I'd look like a Christmas ham wrapped up in the netting! :shock: :lol:

Nope! No way! Not with my back problems.

I would like to see a video of someone getting out of that thing!

Think I would have to swing until I tipped it over to get undone.
