Not all hammocks from Mexico are the same. Some claiming to be 'Huge' hammocks are smaller than our Cozaana, some 'Double' or 'Standard' hammocks will only take one person and nearly all 'Single' hammocks are as uncomfortable as the narrow European versions.

We work directly with a small number of craftspeople and have developed an excellent system of quality control which ensures that you receive the finest product of its type currently available.

All of our hammocks are triple woven - a technique where three threads are interwoven in a continuous, overlapping manner throughout the whole hammock body.

Triple woven hammocks are far superior to double woven hammocks where the weave is very loose, providing much less support and which sag quickly. A double woven hammock may be described as 'Large' or 'Huge' because it will appear to open very wide, however when it comes to comfort and longevity, there is no comparison.

In short - make sure your hammock is triple woven.

All of our hammocks are tension-checked to ensure that no threads bear excessive weight by being too tightly stretched in relation to the surrounding weave when the hammock is in use.

Our hammocks are made with loving care and attention by craftspeople who are proud of their reputation and skill and who would abhor the idea of being associated with a poor quality product.

We supply an illustrated booklet with each hammock containing detailed information on general use, care and maintenance, washing and hanging methods, and much more. Compare our prices to those of a bed, sofa or even a comfy chair and consider the overwhelming advantages of a Mexican hammock.

handwoven hammocks!handwoven hammocks!The Mexican Hammock Company was established in 1983 to provide an outlet in Europe for co-operative based producer groups in rural Mexico. The company was set up as a joint venture between ourselves in the UK and a small group of villagers in southern Mexico with the specific aim of developing reliable, alternative sources of income in areas of high unemployment and relative poverty.
