Is this for a 12 foot hammock? Or would I need a 15 foot stand for a 12 foot hammock?

This stand works great with both of my 10' and 12' hammocks. If your hammock came with an extender chain it will help with finding the right height for you. On the down side, rust does develope so be sure to give your stand a spray with some kind of protectant against the elements. I hope this helped you, and enjoy your hammock.

My hammock is a double wide and twelve feet in length and the 12 foot hammock stand works fine.

It is actually for a 30 ft hammock. You need to double the length cause you have to sleep in it folded over.

Doesn't require a stand. It has big loops on each end. Ours is hung on swivel hooks bolted to the ceiling joists on our screened in porch. And we love this hammock, would buy the exact same one again.

It is about 15" long. You will need to buy a small piece of chain and a ring-hoop to attach the chain to the hammock (I bought mine at home depot for a few bucks). It will also allow you to adjust the tightness to fit your needs!

I ordered the Hatteras stand to go with. T his. The stand has a 600pound weight limit and works really well with the Texsport Seaview Hammock.

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.

i have it hanging between the roof support posts on the back porch. so i'm not sure about a hammock stand.

yes it would all though I believe its possible the hammock would hang too low. if its a small or midsized bar hammock the arms of the stand should adjust high enough to hang it.

I just went outside to check mine for you. It has six holes on each side to adjust for hammock size/height from the ground. The hammock it came with is approximately 11 feet including the ropes. I have mine set to the second hole on each side. The sixth and last hole is approximately sixteen inches lower than the second hole. I suppose that means you could have about 32 more inches of hammock and it would hang about as high as mine does (it's fairly close to the ground). Hope that helps!

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.

Usually the longer hammocks have stabilizer bars on each end. If yours has stabilizer bars (like the popular Pawley's Island Rope Hammock) it will not work on this stand. If it does not have stabilizer bars, the other two answers I see here are right on target.

I do not use a stand for my hammock... I love it so much I built it a covered deck! I hangs between two 6x6 supporting posts on opposite sides of the deck. They are 12 foot apart. (I bought a set of "hammock tree straps" from Amazon to hang it from the posts.) The cotton rope that comprises the hammock does stretch, though, so for the 12 foot distance to work, it has to hang pretty high - about 6 foot with the hammock straps - to keep the center of the hammock high enough off the ground that it is easy to get in and out of. However you hang it, though, GET THIS HAMMOCK!!! You will never be sorry! I do not use a stand for my hammock... I love it so much I built it a covered deck!

Hello, this particular stand is approximately 62 inches when it is collapsed. It is easily taken apart and put back up, its similar to putting up a tent. Please see below links for other hammocks, which have a carrying case that makes it more convenient when camping. Thanks! http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K8AD2AC/ref=twister_B00K889E56 http://www.amazon.com/Vivere-UHSDO9-Double-Hammock-Space-Saving/dp/B004YJCP7O/ref=sr_1_2?m=A3VCRITOBCN68L&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1401395357&sr=1-2

Yes it has chains to adjust the length to set it up for your length and weight. Our hammock stand is 14" and it fits fine.

If the trees are 11 feet apart you will want to look for a hammock that is 10 feet. Typically the hammock stands are 12 feet long to fit an 11 foot hammock. Please let me know if you have any other questions!

I wouldn't know- we have an eye hook we installed in the big beam across our back patio. It does hang down- I'd say a 7.5 ft stand would be ok. You'll be fairly close to the ground, depending on how heavy you are. It's a nice hammock chair.

In my opinion, you would need about 14 ft. from end to end. I had a 12 foot wooden stand and it was too large.

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.
