It is a real pleasure serving all of you at Seaside Hammocks. Following are just a few of the unsolicited remarks our satisfied customers have made on our service and products. Thank you!

Tommy,

My Mayan (Crochet) hammock arrived yesterday and I had the opportunity to sleep in it last night and I'm sad to report that there is some bad news. The bad news isn't for you or for me, it's for companies who make conventional beds and the bad news is that I'll never be able to sleep in one again!

Tommy, I think last night I enjoyed the best nights sleep I've ever had. The better I sleep, the earlier I wake up. When I sleep in my waterbed, I toss and turn and usually wake up around 7:30. When I sleep in the Brazillian hammock, I naturally get up between 6:00 and 6:30. This morning I woke naturally at 5:15 and I was very well rested!

I love the feel of this hammock and I love how it is so open and let's the air flow around me.

Now I know this was just one night so I'm going to continue testing over the weekend and on Monday I'll write you again and let you know if I'm still sleeping as I well as I did last night.

Thanks,
Stefan P

Our order from you arrived today, and it contained the most awesome hammock we've ever seen! We now have 4 hammocks, but the one from you, by far, stands out from all the others as the most unique and beautiful.
Much mahalo,

My husband decided that he wanted a hammock as a bed so I got online and started searching. There are a lot of hammock sites out there, but this one was the easiest to navigate, has the most information and such a friendly feel. So I did what I do best, I questioned and then hit that send button and prepared for the long wait. To my surprise I was answered immediately! All my questions were answered (yes there was a new onslaught after the first wave) in a fast friendly manner. Ordering was a breeze and then I was prepared to wait again. Shipping to Alaska can at times take forever, so imagine my surprise when it arrived less than a week later! Now we plan on buying at least 3 more, and of course getting rid of the couch and getting a few hammock chairs, and I would not think even for a moment of shopping elsewhere! Seaside Hammocks is marvelous and I give them all the rating stars allowed and then some!

Thank you so much for picking out extraordinarily interesting and beautiful hammocks for my two friends! That was so sweet of you! You have exceeded my expectations already! I'm so excited to give these vibrant masterpieces to my friends!
I've never had so much fun ordering something online. You must love your job! Great vibes!
I have a feeling I will be buying hammocks from you for the rest of my life!
Thanks again!

Hi Tommy! Thank you so much for helping me get the hammock I really wanted!! It arrived this week and already it is up and getting lots of complements. I am very pleased with the quality of workmanship and I can say that it's the most comfortable hammock I have ever used. I'm so glad I decided to replace my old LLBean Rope with one of yours!!! I appreciate the information page on use and care, also.
Thanks again for helping more of us to learn to relax and realize what's important...mine will be very well appreciated, I assure you

Tommy,
Just wanted to thank you for the wonderful Hammock you sent us, that I ordered for my husband for Father's Day! He loves it! He spent the afternoon relaxing in it, with a beer and a good book just chillin'!! I wish you could have seen my son and I trying to get it set up with the Madera stand...it was hysterical! We didn't get the stake in deep enough the first time, and when the two of us got into the hammock, it came crashing down! Ha ha! Nobody got hurt though...All in all, we are very happy with the package!
Thanks for everything,

Dear Tom, Thank you for so carefully tracking this order. I picked it up and the hammocks are just what I wanted. Several more orders should be coming from Alaska as a result.. I gave them your website as a resource since friends and family liked the hammocks I purchased. One is for my "tropical" guest room, the other is a birthday gift for my sister... she needs a hammock in her living room.

Again, thanks for your customer service. It was refreshing and appreciated.

Hi Tom!
Hammocks did arrive the afternoon of December 24 and thank you so very much. They are just perfect and beautiful and everything I dreamed they would be!!! Again, thank you so much for your help and for the wonderful hammocks. Can you send some Florida weather so we can use them sooner?
Have a safe and wonderful New Year,

Hi,
thanks so much for the two beautiful rainbow hammocks you sent me. We hung one up already, and I gotta say, average productivity around our house went down considerably ;-)We tied a rope to one of the rafters so that we can rock ourselves in the hammock...
Thanks again, and have a wonderful summer,

Tom,
Just wanted you to know, I received the hammock ok - and am so happy with it! It's really beautiful and incredibly comfortable. Every morning when I go out to feed the horses, I spend about an hour in it, drinking my coffee , watching them eat. Ok, I confess: I'm spending lots of time in the orchard these days...the swaying, weightlessness of it is addictive - I've even attached a string to a nearby sapling so I can pull it and keep it moving. This is my first hammock - and I will never be the same again, I'm afraid. I just hope I can get some painting and other work done in between.
Thank you again - I promise to send all envious friends to your site to buy one of their own!

We received our hammocks yesterday, hung them on the patio, and relaxed! Thanks to the quick shipping, shipping link to follow, and great hammocks! Have a nice day.

THANKS!

Hey Tom,
You know, I have to say, your company has the best selection of hammocks, and I am so pleased with your customer service. It is so refreshing. I appreciate you showing me that the stand would not work. I think any other company would have shipped it out without a second thought. So I just wanted to say, that I really appreciate it, and I thank you for helping and working with me.

Tom,
Thank you very much for two awesome hammocks! My brother and I got them up as soon as they came in and slept in them that night. I had no idea they could be so comfortable. The colors are great and we appreciate you getting them here quickly. I'll let everyone know seaside hammocks has the best deal on the best hammocks.
Happily Hanging,

Anyway your hammock is extremely comfortable, and felt very natural for me even the first time I lied on it. It is also very beautiful.
Thank-you Very much

Hey Tom!
I totally love the hammock I got a while back. Got it hanging nice and am fighting with my wife over it on a regular basis. The new unit is for a friend of ours that produced our latest CD. We're full-time Christian musicians. We thought a hammock would be a perfect thank you gift for our producer, Taylor
Blessings!

MY HAMMOCK IS HERE AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!! I'VE BEEN TELLING EVERYBODY ABOUT THIS INCREDIABLY COMFORTABLE HAMMOCK. MY DAUGHTER IS 20. SHE CAME HOME FROM WORK VERY TIRED. AFTER SHOWING HER THE HAMMOCK AND GETTING HER TO LIE DOWN, I ROCKED HER LIKE SHE WAS A BABY AND SHE ALMOST FELL ASLEEP. I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH. COME CHRISTMAS, I'M THINKING ABOUT GETTING ONE FOR MY BROTHER

Hi Tom,
Just wanted to say Thank you for the fast delivery. The hammock arrived on Aug.29/03
My sister was very happy with the surprise and commented on how it was perfectly packaged and presented. She has done a lot of E-Bay sales with her antique business and has personally shipped many items and was very pleased with the hammock.
Thank you so much for your prompt attention.
Very much appreciated.
I will spread the word and will also be ordering a hammock for myself in the near future.
Best Regards

Thank you Tom!! We love our chair ! We look forward to hanging out in them!! Your customer service is excellent. If only all my purchases were as enjoyable as this one. (You didn't have to send the pillow but my daughter can't wait to get it--that was really nice). If we need any more hammocks, you're our man!

Just wanted to let you know I received my royal blue Mayan hammock last Monday. It was in good condition and my family & I are really enjoying it. Thanks so much for your personal attention to everything. I will be sure to tell my friends about Seaside Hammocks!

Hi, Tom!
Nice to hear from you. I have been living in the garden and basically on strike when it came to computer projects. I can't believe I have a hammock
in my garden (in England! - I LOVE the Greenhouse effect! We reached 97F and it use to be a rare day in England, indeed, when the temps soared to
anything like that. Too Hot. Even for the hammock. I tried constructing very Arabique shade with material hanging from trees but that damn sun was
just blaring through anyway. How you guys take the heat in Florida is beyond me.
Oh, yeah.... we love the hammock. Have it hanging between a tree and a shed and it takes only 30 seconds to set up and take down. The best idea I had in a long time!! Oh ... and Bob, our friend who bought the other hammock -has his inside his flat as he filled his roof garden with too many plants and trees and a very large maine coon cat that he has no room for it out there. But he raves on about the one he has and how he should get one for every room!! They took him away to the local mental holiday camp for a few weeks and now that he has returned the word "Hammock" is muttered much less.
Hope you are doing well.
Best regards,
Gloria and Zee

Now I have to tell you I'm extremely impressed with the speed of your reply! I have never received a reply almost as soon as I sent it! And, to top it off, it was a personalized message, answering all my questions, and not just a form letter! Thank you SO MUCH!

Thank you very much for your personal attention and its refreshing to find these days on the internet...We are looking forward to using this wonderful hammock...The only hard part was deciding on which of your lovely hammocks to choose from...Thanks Again and im sure we will love it...

Glad Steven Weigert introduced us in your store the other day. I've cruised your website a bit. Congratulations.
Here's a good hammock story. Thirty years ago I was in the Yucatan. Tired of climbing Mayan ruins, I took a break on the island of Isla Mujeres. For $.50 per night, I found "Las Hammockas" - a barn with perhaps 50 hammocks hanging. But since I was on my honeymoon, I opted for elsewhere.
I returned to the lake region of Northern Wisconsin U.S. with a couple Mayan hammocks. I like the hammock in the winter. It greets you with that warm smile ... even when covered with snow. It must be that hammock state of mind ... and I still 'feel' that music playing in your store. Thanks

message: Tom, the big red Family Size hammock you sent up to Greensboro, N.C. for my brother's Christmas present was well received. He and his wife loved the color, as did my wife. I haven't seen it yet, but apparently your choice of pillow colors was spot on also.

Hi Tommy!
I received the 3 gorgeous hammocks I ordered yesterday, this afternoon, and am very happy with them.
I'm looking forward to trying them out as soon as the stands come in.
I have back problems and haven't slept soundly in a bed for years, I believe your beautiful hammock will help.
I ordered your special two king size Mayan hammocks, I chose purple, and you chose the other color, a lovely multi-striped, which I am sending to my daughter in California. The other hammock I ordered is for my youngest daughter and she loves it!
I will gladly recommend and do more business with you in the future. In fact, I can think of no better birthday or Christmas gifts than your hammocks and other products.
Thank you so much for your fine selection and your superb service.

An incident that happened recently has brought home to me that no matter how hard we try, we don't make everyone happy all the time. It is my intention to describe the products honestly and with the enthusiasm I actually feel for them, so that when you receive them they are what you expect. We try to follow your shipping instructions exactly, and are happy to include the little personal notes you sometimes ask for. But sometimes we screw up. Things go wrong, and misunderstandings occur. When that happens I, Tom Sloane, the owner of this company, do everything I can to make it right. Sometimes even that is not enough; and those customers do not send a glowing testimonial (or even anything I can print on a family oriented web site). When that happens, I do my best to improve our operation so it does not happen again. Because it is my sincere desire to give you the best and most humanly accountable service on the Internet. Thank you for being here.

All I can say is, Tom. . . you are greatest!!
It was a pleasure to deal with you.
