Latino Relax L + Cumbia L Hammock Stand in Ecru

An off-white hammock with its wooden stand

Beautiful set that combines the warmth of dark wood with off-white. A nice "all-purpose" match that will delight lovers of chic simplicity.

The size L hammock

The size L, with a fabric measuring 140cm wide and 200cm long, is ideal for an adult up to 1.75m tall. Beyond this height and for better comfort diagonally, it is preferable to switch to size XL or for very tall people, size XXL. Even though our size L hammocks can easily withstand the weight of two adults (our test showed resistance up to 478 kg!), it will lack a bit of space. If you are a fan of using the hammock as a duo, prefer our sets wooden stand and XL hammock or wooden stand and XXL hammock whose fabric is wider but especially longer.

All our hammocks are made from a superior quality thread (this is the secret for a hammock not to deform, not to fade, to have good durability, etc.) and you can wash it in the machine at 40° or even 60° if necessary.

The Latino Relax L hammock stand

An excellent stand which, in addition to being made from naturally rot-resistant wood, larch, has dimensions where the ratio between height and length provides the right curve for a hammock. If a hammock is too tight, lying down becomes stiff and the flat diagonal or sitting position becomes impossible. If you compare all the stands available on the Internet, the hanging height is crucial. Too many stands have a height of 110 or 120 cm.

For maintenance, this stand already has a layer of varnish. This varnish will degrade after 3 to 4 years and that is when maintenance should begin. Sanding followed by a layer of stain or saturator. From our experience, we end up preferring the saturator. It is very easy to apply and protects well from UV and rain. During winter, do not store this stand in a dry place. It needs external humidity. If you disassemble it for storage, find a place sheltered from rain and UV, that is ideal. If you do not disassemble it and simply leave it outside, slightly loosen the nuts (wood swells in winter) and avoid having the feet in contact with wet soil by placing bricks, for example, under each end.

The hammock is good for your health

The hammock is not limited to rest. It also presents many health benefits. It helps fight insomnia by promoting quick sleep onset thanks to its rocking motion. A Swiss study demonstrated that rocking improves sleep quality, notably by increasing the duration of stage 2, essential for deep sleep. The hammock is also recommended to relieve back and neck pain, thanks to its uniform support that eases muscle tension. For those suffering from heavy legs, its lying position (lengthwise) helps improve blood circulation. Finally, it has therapeutic benefits, such as the use of fabric hammock chairs in the Padovan method for neuro-functional reorganization.
