I got this hammock in the ocean breeze because I don't like spreader bars in hammocks. This one works perfectly! I have it attacked to hammock straps between two trees and it is amazing. I've o lay had it about a month and it still seems brand new. Hopefully this is an indicator of how well it will hold up! We have been using it daily and everyone in my house fights over it! If you have trouble getting in/out of it, you may not have it adjusted to a good height. I have no issues getting in. The only issue getting out is that I never want to! This hammock is very comfy and can hold two people. I'm very glad I made this purchase and now I get to relax in bliss! I'm looking to buy a second one so that I can have one and the hubby can have the other!
