Perfect for home or camping. Easy to use, lightweight and sturdy. I have a few sets of these. One I keep hanging year round (no deterioration after 2 years) so I can easily clip my big hammock up. I like to keep the hammock out of the elements. The other two sets we use for camping. I would recommend this product.

EASY. Anyone who has had to set up a hammock in a different place every night for any period of time, knows that searching for the right place and setting it up is not as easy as you'd think. I have a small trailer I pull behind my motorcycle. I keep a tent in it and prefer the tent in normal camping situations, but in cold weather a hammock keeps you off the body temperature sucking ground, (even w a mat). In rain I have a tarp for the hammock, that works excellent and being high and dry beats a wet ground or having to dig a trench and you still end up wet. I spent about 40 hrs with my S&W Governor, my smartphone and a pee bottle in my hammock once waiting out a storm, came out of it dry as a bone. Tip: Weave a small hand towel through the rope webbing going to the clips but under the tarp, if it's going to rain, so that any water that might run down the ropes hits the towels and drips to the ground instead of getting to the hammock.

These work extremely well. I've always used ropes to tie my hammocks in the past, but these straps work very well. It does take a little bit of practice to get the strap exactly the length you want. The picture is a bit mis-informative, as you aren't going to be able to run the ring end through the loop on the other end of anything except the perfectly sized tree (and trees, being trees, are rarely the perfect size). Still the straps work on a large variety of tree diameters by wrapping and using friction to hold the strap tight on itself.

The algoma 7800 Hammock Tree Hanging Straps are so strappy that I just can stand it. But put them on a tree and you can stand, in your hammock! So thick and strong and strappy. With that metal ring that is also strong and stuff. Best hammock tree strappy business I've ever purchased!

They are straps. They strap things like my hammock to things like a tree. In this sense, they are fulfilled.

I ordered this at the same time as my hammock. After receiving both I put it between a couple trees 23 feet apart. The hammock itself is 11 feet (out of the box, prior to stretching). There was plenty of length in these straps to cover the 12-foot difference. I installed the straps according to the Amazon photos, with the O ring directly supporting the hammock and the other opening just keeping the strap in check.I was hoping to lie on it with my wife, as this was always the idea I had in mind. After I received the product already I looked and saw that the load rating was for up to 275 lbs. I interpreted this as being 275 lbs per strap for a total of 550 lbs overall load. I wonder if that is intended to be interpreted as 550 lbs of tension, which means supporting much less actual gravity load (because trigonometry and all that).I was able to lie on it plenty of time alone and with my daughter for a total of perhaps 230 lbs together, and other than the expected stretching and settling we had no issues. When my wife and I got on the hammock at the same time--amounting to about 330-350 lbs together--the strap promptly broke where the O ring was transferring the load.I promptly gave up on this strap and started looking for other straps. In the photos for other straps I noticed that the O ring was only carrying a small amount of the tension as it was only there to hold the strap in place and the full amount of tension was carried by the other end of the strap. I quickly rearranged everything accordingly, and tied a knot to stabilize it. It seems to work fine, including for me and my daughter. My wife still declines to try getting on it with me again for now.tl,dr: I recommend installing the strap opposite to the configuration shown in the photos. Use the O ring only to stabilize the strap, and use the other end to carry the tension.

These are better than using rope which can cut into the tree. Worth the purchase.

Excellent quality with good cost. Tried it right the way in the weekend and I enjoy it.

The weather finally dropped a bit in Florida, so I was excited to hang my hammock between two palm trees in the back. I did some research online, and everyone was suggesting that I drill holes in my palms, which I considered heavily before deciding against it. My only concern with the straps was how well they would hold since the palms were not the largest. I decided to go with these over two other sets that I looked at, one with a lower price point and one at a higher price point.I chose these because for $15, it's a minimal investment if they don't work out the way that I hoped they would. In the end, they were perfect. There are no instructions, just two straps and two s-hooks. It was relatively straightforward to install them though. I used the s-hooks that were included, but some people may want to swap them out. Just wrap around the tree and then loop the metal loop through the open piece of fabric. I used some additional chain to secure mine to the loops on the hammock. I used the hammock several times this weekend and it holds up great to the weight on it.Highly recommended product!

As someone who sews, at first I thought these were a waste of money. I mean, really, I could just go buy some webbing and make my own. But when I got the straps, I realized they were worth the price (which really isn't that high). First, they are made out of strapping that closely resembles seat belt strapping. So this is much better stuff than what I could buy at my local Joann's. Second, they were really long. So after I figured in my time, they were well worth the purchase price.The only downside is that they don't come with instructions. Okay, I know, they look pretty simple, but some tips on the most secure way to hang them would really have been helpful. Also, I hadn't noticed from the photos, but there is a loop at the end of the strap. If you look closely at the photo, you can see that you are supposed to put the strap end that's holding the hammock through the loop. I didn't do that when I used them, until I realized this. But they held fine just the same.
