The fully adjustable Lounger features a pillowed headrest and a suspended foot-rest, but one of the best things about this swinging seat is the view – always changing, 360 degrees. Try doing that with your standard seating apparatus. The Air Craft aluminum frame collapses for easy set-up, and packs up into a convenient 6.5" x 17" sack. At just 3 lbs, 6 oz, you can take this hammock everywhere. Simply attach it to a tree or a sturdy support, and swing away! The Lounger hammock retails for $109.95. Eagles Nest Outfitters.
