Overview

A handcrafted two person rope hammock made in the Carolinas from synthetic DuraCord, measuring 13 feet by 55 inches with a 450 lb weight capacity. Model 13DCOT, built for porches, patios and gardens rather than backpacking.

DuraCord is a synthetic rope blend positioned as an alternative to natural cotton, meant to resist fading, mildew and stretch while keeping a similar soft feel. Oak spreader bars are hand dipped in marine varnish to hold up outdoors, and a double latch weave removes the bulky knots typical of woven hammocks in favor of a flatter, sturdier bed. This is a stationary lounging hammock, not a packable camping one, and it needs sturdy trees, posts or a separate stand to hang from.

  • 13 ft x 55 in, 450 lb capacity
  • DuraCord synthetic rope construction
  • Oak spreader bars, marine varnish finish
  • Zinc plated hardware, handcrafted in the USA

Who it's for

Homeowners furnishing a porch, patio or garden with a permanent two person hammock, or anyone replacing a worn rope hammock with a longer lasting synthetic version. Not suited to backpackers or campers who need something packable.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • 450 lb capacity fits two adults
  • DuraCord resists fading and color shift outdoors
  • Zinc plated hardware resists rust
  • Handcrafted in the USA
Cons
  • Not packable or suited to backpacking
  • Needs sturdy trees, posts or a separate stand
  • Heavier than a camping hammock

Performance notes

The double latch weave lets rope pull against rope instead of relying on knots, spreading body weight more evenly across the bed and reducing pressure points during long lounging sessions. Zinc plated rings, chains and tree hooks are chosen to resist rust outdoors, and the included extension chains let the hanging length be adjusted between trees, posts or a compatible stand. At 13 feet by 55 inches with a 450 lb capacity, it is built for two adults rather than a single lightweight camper hammock.
