In the past I’d probably build one, but I’d rather buy a well built one this time around.

Does anyone have a recommendation in south LA? Looking for a 5 or 6’

We had a teak one hanging from an oak. He lasted 5 years.

Then we went with polywood and several years, it still looks new.

I found that guy after I started this. Looks very nice and pretty reasonably priced.

I can vouch for them as well. They actually forgot to put the hardware kit in during shipment. One quick phone call and they made it right. Had the hardware in just a couple of days.

Great product. Great customer service.
Parents have been enjoying it for about 3 years now.

Got ours from there probably 10 years ago. It's still in good shape.

If you have the room and are willing to swing the extra cost, go for the porch bed swing. We were gifted one as a house warming present years ago, but it's pretty incredible. Ours has a double mattress that's covered in a plastic zip up casing with a custom fabric zip up casing that goes over that.

I've taken some of the best naps of my life on it.

You can google porch bed swing to see lots of different styles.
