This Top-Rated Hammock from Amazon Will Bring the Beach to Your Backyard
Take your staycation to the next level with the adult swaddle we could all use right now.
If the closest thing you had to a summer vacation this year was staring at your computer’s tropical desktop background, we feel you. It’s been the year of cancelations, and that likely includes the family vacation you had booked to a secluded beach far away in the tropics.
But just as our hopes of relaxation among the unusual stress of the coronavirus seemed like a pipe dream, we rediscovered something that’s been under our noses all along: our own yards. Some of us spruced up our porches, others got out the weed eater, fertilizer, and elbow grease to discover our grass could actually be lush and green after all. Most of us admired our hydrangeas for more hours than we ever thought possible. But the luckiest of us all have been enjoying the view of our own little outdoor kingdom from the comfort of a hammock.
It might seem simple, but a hammock makes all the difference these days. Don’t believe us? Just look at the numbers. The New York Times included hammocks among the most recent “panic buys,” and market research from NPD group reports that hammock sales were up by 103% in the two weeks leading up to May 2, 2020. It’s simple to see this old-fashioned way of taking it easy is back in style.
Even so, not all hammocks are created equal. Cue Vivere’s free-standing hammocks. Ranging from $89 to $225, they’re the best-selling hammocks on Amazon for a reason. Offered in cotton, polyester, and Sunbrella in 39 different colors, these Brazilian-style hammocks are as flexible as it gets. Don’t have trees or poles to suspend it from? Just use the stand. Want to be further from the ground? You can pick the height. It even comes with the options to add on a set of wheels, so you can roll yourself to a new view after a few weeks of staring at the same spot.
