A garden hammock are a great place to shut yourself off from the worries of modern life and simply relax. Many cultures worldwide make use of hammocks in a massive variety of ways. How does a soft garden hammock for finding a tranquil paradise in your own backyard sound? Or a versatile camping hammock for the height of comfort while camping? A fine outdoor hammock on your deck overlooking a magnificent ocean? What about a luxurious hammock bed for the best night sleep of your life?
The garden hammock and outdoor hammock have been used extensively throughout Central America for millennia to keep cool and comfy on hot, tropical nights. Being raised from the ground meant greater exposure to air and so the body was cooled easier. In order to survive the harsh conditions of the Amazonian basin, people slept in special a kind of cocoon-like hammock bed that was treated with natural insect repellents. Being high off the ground meant that the moisture from the ground wouldn’t affect them and the creepy crawlies couldn’t get to them.
Did you know that the garden hammock has been used in Europe since the 5th Century BC? One of Socrates students, Alcibiales, is accredited their design in European culture. And these Greek philosophers were smart guys right? They gave us math, medicine, science and – most importantly – the hammock!
The benefits of a garden hammock, camping hammock or any indeed any hammock have been known for longer than anybody can remember. Native American peoples have been using them forever and Alcibiades has the math and science to prove their comfort and chiropractic qualities!

Amby Baby hammock bed recalled!
Posted by admin on Dec 13, 2009
The Amby Baby hammock bed has been recalled. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission released a directive for its recall after two infants had suffered an unfortunate death connected to the hammock bed. Health Canada has also issued national advice to parents to stop using the product, as it may be potentially lethal.
Two U.S. infants suffocated whilst in the hammock bed during 2009, both under 6 months of age. This was due to the unstable nature of the hammock. Whereas in normal hammocks motion is restricted, the Amby Baby hammock bed allows for virtually unrestricted movement. This leads to the possibility of a child rolling and becoming trapped in a dangerous position.
Contact Amby Baby for a free repair kit. Garden-hammock.net urges consumers to dismantle the hammock bed safely and in a manner through which it may never be assembled again. Amby Baby USA can be contacted at (866) 544-9721 between 9 a.m. and 5p.m. ET Monday through Friday toll-free. Alternatively you may visit their Website: www.ambybaby.com.
