does it stretch too much like cotton rope and hit the ground?

I have not found that to be the case. Very comfortable. Tight weave does tend to catch a lot of leaves

No! Haven't had that problem! We've been really happy with this hammock! Two of us can lay in it at the same time and it holds up really well! We have it tethered between a tree and the pergola attached to our house. Having a strong place to anchor it is key! That rope is softer than the cotton one we had before as well! So far so good!

It does stretch quite a bit. What I did was shorten the rope ends. They are tied on with simple knots. This will be my first full summer with it like this so I don't know how long it will last like this.

It does hang down low, but we purchased the tree kit and were able to raise those ties up accordingly.

No. In fact rolls rather smoothly. But when coming to any kind of incline, good to break a little.

No, this rope isn't ideal to be used as a resistance rope. It only has enough stretch to keep it durable, but a bit too much and I feel that it may snap.

It is quite flexible because of its length. It should not go its own way at all. it behaves more like a soft garden hose . We are very happy with it after several months of use .

It appears to made of strong cord that is slightly stretchable, could be a synthetic material that is strong. It is not rope strands and stands up well in weather. I have installed outside as a basketball court net to keep the ball from bounding out of the court. I have had no problem with it breaking or over-stretching.

nope. not unless you enjoy ending up halfway across the room after a few dozen jumps. it'll inch a bit each time you land. infuriating, and dangerous. excellent way to twist an ankle.

HelloIt does but gets back to initial state in a little whileNot suitable for super stretchy material thoughHope that helps

While I did not try to stretch the tarp, it is not designed to do so. Polymer coated fabric and may have a few percentage give and stretch when warm but not a lot.

Yes, it doesn't reach quite to the end and then we have to really stretch those elastic bands and they start to rip.

When it is new it's a bit stiff, as you use it more it does tend to dip a bit but that is why they give you longer hooks for when it's new and then you can go without them to tighten it back up, I am about 190lb and it has never dipped to the point I feel like I am on the ground. It is a bit stiffer then a rope hammock but once you get use to that it's very comfortable. I even gave my rope hammock away! I have had mine for over a year and have had NO issues with it. It gets the most use in the Spring and fall but with the nice canopy I have even used it a bit in the summer.

Yes, it is somewhat "stretchy" and should be OK in doing yard work as long as you do not do a lot of low bending as it may shift somewhat.

No, not exactly. It rolls up on itself and then straps hold it together. Kind of hard to explain but it is effective.

Yes. It flexes a little bit, but it is perfect for that is you secure it to the ground.

I haven't had that problem. Are you pushing hard when you roll, or just letting it "glide" over your skin?

I would worry about what the swing is hanging on (how strong is that branch?) The nylon rope is not thinand flimsy. The plastic seat is very strong, but it's hard plastic and I weighed 160 when I tried it out. Besides not being very comfortable on an flabby old butt with more hanging off than on, it wasn't apretty sight.

Nope it won't stretch, but it is a rough texture so I'd compare it to doing push ups on concrete.

Yes, sometimes it feels like it will break. Just put more force.. the material is really strong.
