I too have bought the hammock stand due to the high load capacity / size and the low price and was not disappointed. The term "Imposing" in the product description applies m. E. the nail on the head. The wood is treated though, I have it but still before the assembly, which was fairly easy to do alone, treated with a wood oil for outdoor use (can not hurt). All fasteners such as screws, nuts, washers, eyelets, chains and carabiner (all galvanized) were included in the delivery. The wood is not cut suuuuperfein, but this makes it seem all the more natural. Soon I will still make me think about the mounting of 2 rolls / wheels, so you also alone gets a good piece from A to B. From me a strong buy recommendation!
