How wide of a hammock stand is suitable for the Jumbo size hammock? Is 15 feet good enough, (given the stretch over time)?

Probably, but if you can find a longer one I would go that route, just to be safe. You can always make it fit a longer gap by using longer chains to hang it. I haven't measured it, but I'm guessing ours is about 12' (between a tree and a metal pipe) and it definitely needs another 18"-24".

I'm not really sure of what size hammock stand would be suitable for this huge hammock since we bought it for our summer camping out in a rustic setting and just put it up between trees.....the straps advertised with it worked really well to hold the weight of our lively bunch, and didn't seem to damage the bark on the trees selected for the task....it's going to be a fun addition to our camping tradition.

It is really big hammock. Me and my husband, we lay down on the hammock and alot room left at side by side and we wrap around us. It is really long too I think may be 15 feet or more my husband is 6 feet 4" tall and still more room left. We really love it, I hope this answer help you.

It depends on the height that you have it. I hung mine in my room. The anchor points are 7 feet from ground, the d distance between points are about 14 feet but the hammock is about 12 feet. At about a 30 degree angle I sit a bit over 18 inches from floor. If you use a 15 foot distance stand out may be really close to the ground and another comment I read said something along those lines. I sleep in my jumbo hammock every day and am thinking of getting another for camping. Good luck and happy swinging!

The Hammocls Rada are actually long and big. My hammock stand is too small and I had to tie knots in the ends to make it fit. Strong trees 9-10' apart will be perfect. I'm 6'3", 220lbs, and there is plenty of room for more!

The actual laying space between the wood slats is 53" wide x 76" long. I didn't realize it was wider than a regular size hammock, so it was a slight adjustment to the getting in and out process, but adapted quickly. Super comfy for one or two. Love it, and we paid the original price, so a great deal on sale.

Should work. The hammock has chains attached allowing for variuos support widths

I purchased a set that had a long wood stand and a cheap hammock- then when the hammock rotted- I got the Jumbo to replace it- It was cheaper to get the set than to just outright buy the stand when I was looking. Just be careful you get the larger wooden one-I think 13 feet?

We use a standard hammock stand with ours like the one shown in the picture. Be sure to get a good quality one though as the first one we got bent at the welded corners when my husband sat on the hammock. We were sent a replacement stand which we had to reinforce in order to make it work. The hammock itself is quite sturdy and seems quite durable. It did however fade a good deal after the first year being out in the sun the majority of the time.

My hammock is for one person and the length is around 9'. The ends do not reach the two hooks of the stand but i bought two 6" chain links and 4 fasteners from Home Depot and they work perfectly!

It says in the description: "this hammock will fit any 15 feet long hammock stand". And that happens to be almost the exact distance between my two trees. Now, your stand is four feet shorter than that (under eleven feet), and of course it will work but it will probably be sagging too much and will probably touch the ground in the middle if you hang it from the farthest outside chain links.Now, if you choke up on the hammock by hanging it from the farthest inside chain links, it could possibly start hanging off the ground, but I'm not 100% sure about that. I would have to guess that 11 feet might be too short of a distance. Hope this helps. It says in the description: "this hammock will fit any 15 feet long hammock stand".

The length of the stand from hook to hook is 9' 5". It may fit a little tight, but I don't know how much "stretch" you would have in your hammock.

For this hammock, I bought the Vivere 15BEAM-BLK Heavy Duty 3-Beam Hammock Stand, 15-FeetSold by: Amazon.com LLCIt is really sturdy, well made and is easy to put together and disassembles easily for storage.

It's fairly wide. My husband and I both can lay together beside eachother on it. He's 6'4 240 lbs and theres still plenty of room. Its very easy to bring in and put up. The hammock itself isn't heavy.

I don't know exactly how wide it is because I moved and left it at my house, but I found it to be wide enough and it is very easy to unhook. I would definitely recommend this hammock

No, you will need 15-20 feet. Otherwise the hammock will droop to low in the center

You really don't give up much my mother has a 15 foot stand and I haven't noticed a big difference. I like this stand because you can adjust the hammock to how you want it and as the hammock streches. Hope this helps

Mine was 12 ft I think, and it's stretched to the max. It's made of criss crossed cords though, which stretch quite a bit, I don't know if fabric behaves the same way. The two diagonal bars actually have some wiggle room so they will move towards each other when the hammock pulls on them.

This stand does not support a two person hammock as advertised. A two person hammock will be on the rings with no opportunity to tighten....it will be on the final link and still dragging the ground. Buy a fifteen foot.
