    Bed replacement

    Received my universal stand and hammock today so now i can say goodbye to my bed and hopefully get some good nights sleep.
    I bought a Brazilian hammock to replace the HH i had hanging in the spare bedroom, could not stand the velcro entrance digging into my leg and it was a hassle getting up in the middle of the night to pee and having to climb in and out of the hole. It's also nice to be able reach for things without being trapped by the netting, this hammock is great!
    It looks like it will be a popular spot for watching TV as well, my son seems to be in it whenever i am not, my wife has expressed some interest in watching her shows while lying in it.
    So comfortable right now, that's right, i'm writing this while i'm hanging!

    Good move! I've been sleeping full time in a hammock for several years now, but I had the bed (box springs & mattress) leaned against the wall in case we had house guests.
    But now the bed's gone so if someone needs a bed, they'll have to use a Coleman inflatable one
    I too will something make and joy in it's making

    Good stuff having hammocks everywhere. I'm writing from a hammock chair right now and Genuine Draft just went downstairs to lay in her Brazilian to watch some TV and nod off.
    Trust nobody!

    I ordered it from hammockuniverse in Ottawa, free shipping, fedex, and it took a week to get here. Bought the hammock and stand combo which made it a little cheaper. It seems to be online only which is fine, they were quick and seem to have a good selection.
    The only hammock store i found out here on the west coast is at Granville island, brick and morter store with higher prices, the hang out store.
