Lazy Days Hammock

|
In terms of sheer decadence, lazing around in a hammock is up there with jet-skiing around your yacht or getting the nearest pneumatic blonde to shake your dice. Thankfully hammocks are a lot cheaper than yachts and casino fines. But unless you've got a degree in macramé or a condo in Fiji they're not that easy to come by.
Yes, you can buy one on your hols, but trying to find two perfectly-spaced coconut trees to hang it between isn't easy, especially in non-tropical Blighty. And that's where the hi-tech Lazy Days Hammock comes in.
This superior portable hammock can be erected in seconds and you don't need sailor-standard knotting skills to do it. Best of all the whole kit and caboodle weighs less than 22 pounds and folds up into a handy rucksack/carry case, so you can take it wherever you fancy - up the park, down the common, on the beach or in the back yard.
The secret to the Lazy Day's supreme portability lies in its light but sturdy collapsible steel frame. This ingenious support system does away with the need for hanging posts and you won't have to worry about the whole thing collapsing if your knots aren't up to scratch because there aren't any.
You can also wave adieu to slapstick dismounting disasters, because unlike old-school rope hammocks this state-of-the-art loafing accessory is crafted in soft but durable nylon. The Lazy Days Hammock has unquestionably been constructed with the professional layabout in mind, and the Deluxe model boasts a handy drink holder, book pocket and inflatable pillow. All that's missing is the gentle cadence of calypso music and a few scantily-clad assistants to dangle grapes into your mouth.
The Lazy Days Hammock is an infinitely superior alternative to deckchairs and loungers, and it's so easy to erect and take down you'll be tempted to take it everywhere. So stop lazing around and order yours now!

"World's Best Portable Hammock."
Loaded |
"The unique selling point is that this hammock is portable - you can set it up in the back garden, or take it with you to the beach."
The Independent |
"It's Sunday and the fence needs mending, the rubbish needs taking out and your missus is calling from the kitchen. Sod it - take life easy with a hammock that will do most of the work when it comes to digesting dinner"

Excellent! Just received it as a birthday present. It started raining 5 minutes after I started using it, but since it only took less than a minute to set up and half that to put away again, it doesn't really matter.

Hiya, received my deluxe folding hammock today. Absolutely brilliant, seconds to put up, lounger, cold beer, sounds, and sun. Can it get any better? Thanks firebox..........
Dean Kendell, Portsmouth - Jun '07 |
This is absolutely fansastic! I got one for my birthday and haven't been out of it since. It folds up really neatly and is a well balanced weight on your back. What are you waiting for? Buy it!
Mike Butler, Kent - Aug '05 |
Fantastic bit of kit. Folds away nicely and is a doddle to set up. Takes my weight (and thats no mean feat)and will be well used this summer!
If you're anything like me and love hammocks but have no-where to put one permanently than this is absolutely the perfect choice.

Is it a drinks flask or a solar-powered lamp? The groundbreaking LightCap is both because its lid contains a solar panel, battery pack and powerful LED light. You can even make the lamp glow red to preserve energy and replicate that bridge-of-the-Enterprise feel. Ideal for thirsty backpackers.

Consigning clunky Old West style dishware to the scrapheap, this all-in-one canteen/cutlery set is ideal for gallivanting gourmets. Scandinavian designers have somehow managed to fit two plates, a spill-free cup, a bowl, a chopping board/colander and a spork in one waterproof box. Perfect for munching on the move.
