    Amazon Vivere Heavy Duty 3-Beam Hammock Stand

    Happy Monday Hangers,

    Does anyone have experience with these Vivere pipe stands? Good? Bad? Ugly?
    They appear to be one of the beefier & longer pipe stands.....

    I put it into HF search and found one mention that was neutral.

    I have the Vivere space saving hammock stand (not this one), which is only 9' long or so and I like it. The build quality is very good and the one I got is portable.

    I just bought one of these for my balcony. I love it! It's easy to put together and light enough to move around if I want to. I can also take it apart easily for inside storage once the snow flies.

    Just make sure you're good with the 48" height. For some hammocks, that might not be enough.

    Thanks for the replies. Well, I bought one.
    They have two versions, a three pipe and a 6-pipe that snap together. I would try to get the 3-pipe if anyone is in the market. Why? Less sloppy.

    The Good: Beefy, heavy steel.
    Tall enough for a ENO, WBBB, and any hammocks I have.
    Long enough for anything.

    The Bad: There is allot of combined slop in the mated pipes where the "V" vertical pipes lean outwards under no load making the hammock tight. It is similar to having a poor stretchy suspension.
