    100kg seems very heavy, I wonder if they've got the weight wrong :question:
    Use words that are soft and sweet in case you have to eat them.

    I think that's the max weight of the person on it! (Counts me out!)

    I bought a free standing hamock from Lidl last year. Different style, but it was a substantial bit of kit (hefty interlocking tubes of steel).

    I wouldn't say mine was 100kg, but of sufficient weight for it to be a struggle for a grown man to carry single handed, and neigh impossible to carry when boxed. Mine was probably in the order of 60kg+

    The one pictured looks like it has more tubes (mine was a single U shape with two T pieces at the bottom), but possibly thinner. I would say this is definitely not something you can easily carry to the beach! Good hammock though if you have a patio / decking and can leave the structure (minus sling bit) up for a few weeks over summer.

    HTH - Rufus.
