How do I care for my rattan hammock?
To keep your rattan hammock looking its best, regularly wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals that could damage the fibres. Periodic oiling can help maintain the rattan's natural sheen.

Are the frames sturdy?
We have selected hammocks with robust steel or aluminium frames designed for stability and long-lasting use. The frame strength is a key consideration in our mid-range selection, ensuring comfortable and secure relaxation.
