If you love camping or hiking, you have probably used a hammock in at least one of your adventures. You may have enjoyed it or hated it. I love camping a lot and use hammocks all the time. The first time I used one, I disliked the experience and swore never to use them again until a friend convinced me that I was the problem and not the hammock. She told me to visit http://www.hammockcentre.com/, that they had the best hammock reviews and there, I would find the ideal hammock for me. After I purchased one there, my whole experience changed.
There are a few reasons you have hated your hammock experience.
1.	Like me, your hammock was not the right size for you. The ideal hammock is four feet longer than your height. Anything more or less than this may strain and cause injury to your back.
2.	You had hung it lower than the required height. This will also cause back injury and discomfort while sleeping.
3.	Wrong size. This depends on whether the hammock is a double or single person hammock. Avoid sleeping in double sized hammock if you’re alone as there’s too unoccupied space that causes discomfort.
Alternatively, hammocks may not be your thing, it happens. If this is the case, don’t worry, there is a variety of options you could use in its place while camping or hiking. Sad thing is, though, that you’re missing out on a great swing.

Keeping Your Hammock Clean

Do you wonder how you’ll bring that hammock down and clean it? Does it bother you that much? Well, no need to worry anymore. Today, we’re going to share a few tips on how to easily and conveniently clean our hammocks.
First, you’ll need to have a good hammock. If not, you could always find a good one at http://www.hammockcentre.com/ where they sell and review the best hammocks in town. They also share their travel experiences on their blog. I digress, though.
To wash a hammock is quite easy because, hammocks don’t touch the ground so they rarely get dirty especially the indoor ones. The outdoor may get a bit dirty from time to time but they are the easiest to wash; mainly because they are made from nylon based material. The material rarely traps dirt and when it does, just a little wiping with a clean cloth will leave it spic and span.
For the handwoven (mainly indoor), hand washing or machine wash will serve the purpose, just remember to always read the manual on whether your hammock is machine washable.
Note that if you don’t wash your hammock, a lot of dirt will accumulate in its fabric and molds may start growing and a bad smell emitted. 
Also remember to let it fully dry when you wash it. Spread it outside for a day or two depending on the weather in your area. And when it is fully dry, place it back up and enjoy a good sleep.
