What products does anymaka offer?
anymaka offers two stand products: the Hammock Stand (sets up in 3 seconds, ideal for backyard and car camping) and the Swing Chair (a compact swing stand that packs into a backpack-style bag). Both are available as standalone units or as combo packs bundled with anymaka ultralight hammocks and accessories, so you can choose exactly the setup that fits your needs.
Accessories available:
Canopy Kit, Cup Holder, Insect Net, and Hammock Tent (for the Hammock Stand)
Canopy Kit and Cup Holder (for the Swing Chair).
Are prices in USD? How does that work for my local currency?
All prices on anymaka.com are listed in USD. If you're shopping from outside the US, your bank or payment provider will automatically convert the USD charge to your local currency at checkout.
The good news: customers in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia all benefit from local warehouse fulfillment — no extra duties, customs fees, or import taxes. You simply pay in USD, and your bank handles the conversion.
Why do I see different prices on different devices or locations?
Prices can vary based on your shipping destination, as taxes, and duties differ by region. Please make sure your shipping address is set correctly to see the accurate price for your area.
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes! anymaka offers free shipping on all orders over $149. Orders are typically processed and shipped within 1-2 business days. Once shipped, delivery usually takes 3-5 days depending on your location. You'll receive a tracking number via email as soon as your order ships.
*Note: Customers in Alaska and Hawaii are not eligible for free shipping. Shipping rates for these regions are calculated based on order weight, normally between $170-$200 USD.
Do you offer military discounts?
We deeply appreciate the service of our military members and veterans. While we don't currently have a dedicated military discount program, we regularly run promotions and seasonal sales. We recommend signing up for our newsletter to be the first to know about upcoming offers.
How does the Snap-Fold design work? How fast is the setup?
The Hammock Stand uses anymaka's award-winning Snap-Fold mechanism, which allows the stand to unfold and lock into place in about 3 seconds — no tools, no pinched fingers. Simply unfold, hang your hammock, and relax. Folding it back down is just as fast.
What hammocks are compatible with the Hammock Stand?
We recommend using the anymaka Ultralight Double Hammock, which is designed to pair perfectly with the stand for the best fit, feel, and safety rating (up to 550 lbs / 250 kg combined).
The stand is also compatible with most traditional gathered-end hammocks from other brands (such as ENO) up to 12 feet long.
It is NOT compatible with hammocks that have attached ridgelines, integrated bug nets, or spreader bars.
Fit tips: If your hammock has excess rope making it too long, wrap the extra around the stand's end frame. If it's slightly short, try switching to chair mode or extend it with additional carabiners or rope.
Will it fit my height?
Yes — the stand features 8 adjustable points on each arm and a 105-inch (265 cm) ridgeline. This accommodates the vast majority of adult heights and allows you to customize the hang angle for a sitting or reclining position.
How much does it weigh, and is it truly portable?
The Hammock Stand weighs approximately 10.4 kg (23 lbs) — roughly the weight of a small carry-on suitcase. Thanks to the Snap-Fold design, it folds into a compact travel bag, making it easy to take to the park, beach, or campsite. It's best suited for car camping and backyard use rather than long-distance backpacking.
How much weight can the stand support?
The stand is tested and rated to support up to 550 lbs (250 kg). The frame is built with aircraft-grade aluminum, which is significantly lighter than steel while providing exceptional strength and durability.
Why does the stand have a slight flex, and is it safe?
The slight flex is an intentional part of the design — it allows the stand to adapt to uneven ground and absorb movement naturally, much like how a tree branch gives a little under weight. The stand is engineered and tested above industry standards, and the anti-slip feet keep it firmly in place on most surfaces.
Is it rust-proof? What materials are used?
Yes. The frame is made from aluminum alloy, which is naturally corrosion-resistant. All bolts and screws are 304 stainless steel and undergo passivation treatment. The aluminum also receives acid anodizing treatment and black textured paint coating. The stand has been tested in a 36-hour salt fog chamber — equivalent to approximately 2 years of outdoor exposure.
Can I use the stand indoors?
Yes! Many customers use the anymaka stand indoors in living rooms, bedrooms, or sunrooms. Just ensure there's enough floor space — the stand footprint is roughly 10–11 feet long.
Can I leave the stand outside all the time?
We do not recommend it. UV exposure will gradually fade and weaken the fabric over time. The stand itself is weather-resistant, but for best longevity, store the hammock fabric indoors when not in use.
Is the Chair Hammock compatible with the Hammock Stand?
No. The Chair Hammock is designed exclusively for the anymaka Swing Chair stand. It is too small for the Hammock Stand, and the two systems are not interchangeable.
What is the Swing Chair and how is it different from the Hammock Stand?
The Swing Chair is anymaka's newest product — a compact swing stand designed to pack down into a backpack-style carrying bag for maximum portability. It's ideal for users who want to go further on foot and relax anywhere.
Unlike the Hammock Stand, which is optimized for a full lay-flat hang, the Swing Chair pairs with the anymaka Ultralight Chair Hammock to create a comfortable seated swing experience.
Can the Swing Chair hold a regular double hammock?
Yes, it can work with some double hammocks. By using extension straps secured to the legs of the Swing Chair stand, you can accommodate a standard gathered-end double hammock. However, for the best experience and safety, we recommend using the anymaka Ultralight Chair Hammock, which is specifically designed for this stand.
How much weight can the swing chair support?
Built to exceed industry standards, the swing chair utilizes 6005 aircraft-grade aluminum and 304 rust-resistant stainless steel for ultimate durability. Combined with its 40D diamond ripstop nylon fabric, the system securely supports up to 300 lbs (140 kg) with zero wobbling, providing a rock-solid experience on any terrain.
Is the Swing Chair adjustable?
The stand frame itself does not have adjustable height settings. However, the Chair Hammock naturally conforms to your body shape and posture, allowing for a comfortable seated or reclined position without manual adjustment.
What accessories does anymaka offer?
Hammock Stand accessories:
• Adjustable Canopy Kit (Hammock Stand version)
• Cup Holder
• Insect Net
• Hammock Tent
• Ultralight Double Hammock
Swing Chair accessories:
• Adjustable Canopy Kit (Swing Chair version)
• Cup Holder
• Ultralight Chair Hammock
*Note: The two Canopy Kits are different products designed for each stand and are not interchangeable.
How does the Canopy Kit work for the Hammock Stand?
The Hammock Stand Canopy Kit attaches securely to the stand frame with bolts. It adjusts up to 180 degrees, allowing you to reposition the shade throughout the day to block morning or afternoon sun.
Wind performance: It holds up well in steady winds of 10–15 mph with gusts up to 25–30 mph. It may sway in stronger gusts but stays stable since it's bolted to the frame.
Rain resistance: The canopy has a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating for protection from light or unexpected showers, but is not designed for sustained heavy rain.
Setup tip: Assemble the canopy before attaching it to the stand. In windy conditions, having a second person assist makes setup much easier. Avoid setting up on the beach during high winds.
How does the Canopy Kit work for the Swing Chair?
The Swing Chair Canopy Kit is designed specifically for the Swing Chair stand and attaches to its frame. Like the Hammock Stand version, it provides adjustable shade coverage and has a DWR splash-proof coating.
*Note: The Swing Chair Canopy Kit cannot be used on the Hammock Stand, and vice versa.
What are the dimensions of the Ultralight Double Hammock?
Unpacked: 141 × 86 inches (358 × 220 cm).
Packed in its stuff sack: 4.3 × 4.3 × 6.7 inches (11 × 11 × 17 cm) — compact enough to fit in a day pack.
What material is the Ultralight Double Hammock made from?
The hammock is crafted from 40D diamond ripstop nylon — super soft, lightweight, and breathable, while still supporting up to 550 lbs (250 kg) together with the stand.
How do I care for and store my hammock?
To keep your hammock in the best condition and extend its lifespan, we recommend the following:
After each use: Remove the hammock from the stand and bring it indoors. Prolonged outdoor exposure — especially to UV rays — can cause the fabric to fade, weaken, or deteriorate over time.
Long-term storage: Pack the hammock into its included stuff sack and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
