Can this chair hang from an indoor C stand? I bought a hammock chair but it hangs on the floor. I need a shorter chair.

The ropes on this chair are fully adjustable so it can easily hang from a stand. I have mine hanging on stand and it works great. You may need to adjust it a few times initially as the ropes stretch.

I have a C stand that is outdoors. I had to do some modifications to the chair in order to get the height I needed. The modifications were minor. I ended up buying some chain, eye hooks and a swivel hook. That did the trick on giving me the height I needed. When done it was like when you would change the height of a swing at the play ground. Hope this helps.

Hi,Thanks for your question. The hanging chair stand is designed to have a little bit of movement on the top of the stand, in order to stabilize the stand, and to prevent swinging and lifting from the bottom of the stand. By allowing the top to move a little, the manufacturer has minimized the likelihood that the lower part of the stand would lift off the ground, and therefore minimized the chances of the stand tipping over, even if children or irresponsible adults rock the stand back and forth, which is not it's intended use!Cheers and thanks, Flipper - Gear Out Here Hi,Thanks for your question.

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".

I would HIGHLY recommend searching for a "hammock hang calculator" online, to help determine your hang height. There are multiple factors to consider, there.If you're going to hang the hammock between 2 trees or girthy posts, just find a set of straps that are long enough to go around the tree... And, rated high enough for the weight you may have in the hammock.

I guess it could be hung indoors if you have a big enough room with a strong enough beam from it to hang. It swings great and has a "wide" swing when hung from a long rope.

Not sure. I know the hammock is really long, so I would be doubtful it would work with a stand. It also relaxes quite a bit, making it longer. We wound up stringing it between 2 trees... and then had find 2 other trees that were farther apart as the hammock relaxed with use. However, I will say I have been very satisfied with this hammock. We left it out all last summer (rain or shine) and it still looks great. The ropes are also soft.

Absolutely NOT, that's why I got a 10 ft hammock ( hard to find) for this stand I had. I actually had to put a short chain at each end, depends on how high you want it

The hammock does not require hardware to hang. It comes with tree straps that will work for small to mid size trees. For very large trees you may need to purchase the longer straps.

No. I didnt need a stand, you probably have to purchase that separately. Very nice quality hammock though.

Audrey,I've used mine inside without any problems. It does free-stand. If I were to use it outside, I would probably add a small brace from the foot to the vertical part of the stand on each end, but if used properly it is just fine right out of the box. ThanksRon N

Our "C" Stand is currently un-anchored on a tiled surface and we've not had any problems; we also have the stand turned sideways so that human feet are between the front and back stand-legs. Our hammock chair sits rather low and that adds to having a lower center-of-gravity as well. AND... we don't let kids get crazy as though it were a playground jungle-gym. So far, so good.

Depends on where your trying to hang this. Unless your trying to hang this indoors off 2 walls then no. You can wrap any kind of cordage around a tree, post, etc. and create a permanent or temporary fixed loop that acts as an 'anchor point'. The hooks from the hammock will attach to those points. I'd recommend a 'slip knot' if your not going to replace the hooks with carabiners. It's hard to get them off (not impossible) but you won't have to worry about the hooks coming loose from your anchor points.

I'm not near the chair so I can't measure it with precision, but I will tell you the bar width is about 3.5 feet. I hung my chair from my 8 foot ceiling. The bar is about 2.5 feet below my ceiling, and the bottom of the chair is perhaps 3 feet from the floor. The chair itself ends up being hammock-style, but designed more for sitting in than laying down. It is large enough that a range of people from children to full-size adults can sit in the chair without any problems. I'm very tall (6' 4") and can sit in the chair comfortably, although we use it mostly for kids just because I'm not sure my bolt in the ceiling will handle regular adult use. The chair most certainly could, if I could anchor it more securely in my ceiling.

Yes. You are supposed to hang a hammock such that the ropes make a 30 degree angle to the ground. This reduces the load on the ropes/straps. Lesser angles can put more weight on the ropes/straps than the total weight of the occupants in the hammock. I recommend a book called "The Ultimate Hang" for about $3 on kindle. I've seen people break 500lb straps using them incorrectly...

That I can't answer as I have mine hung from a spring hook on our porch. It is a really comfortable chair to sit in and you can even pull the bottom of it out far enough you can put your legs and feet in it. I love mine.
