What Our Customers Are Saying

Customer photo Ridgeback lying on the hammock after a river walk
Lerato M. (Fourways)

Saturday walks along the river used to mean an hour of cleaning the car. Now Duke jumps in soaking wet and the leather stays perfect. Wish I'd bought it a year ago.

Customer photo Hammock fitted in a Toyota Fortuner
Pieter v.d. Merwe (Durbanville)

Fits our Fortuner perfectly. Clipped on in under two minutes and it hasn't budged. After the beach I hose it off on the lawn.

Customer photo Two dogs on the hammock, beach in background
Aisha K. (Umhlanga)

Two dogs, daily beach runs. Sand was everywhere. Two valets cost me more than this hammock. Best R799 I've spent on the car.

Chris D. (Centurion)

Our Lab used to climb into the front every trip. The hammock keeps him in the back and he just lies down now. Much calmer drives.

Customer photo Clean back seat with hammock folded in pouch
Nomvula S. (Somerset West)

I was embarrassed by the state of my back seat. Now my car looks like nobody's dog has ever been in it. Got the 2-pack for my sister too.

Jason R. (Ballito)

Proper thick fabric. Our Staffie's claws haven't made a single mark and the non-slip backing stays in place on leather.

Megan T. (Constantia)

Muddy trail run with the Weimaraner, then straight to school pickup. The kids didn't even notice. Neither did my seats.

FAQ

Your questions, answered

How does the hammock work?

Four adjustable straps clip around your front and back headrests to make a hammock across the whole back seat. Two seat anchors tuck into the gap between the seat cushions to stop it sliding. Unclip the front straps and it becomes a normal bench seat cover.

Will it fit my car?

Yes, it fits almost every hatchback, sedan, SUV and double-cab bakkie. At 147 × 137 cm it covers the full back bench, and zip openings let you still reach the seat belts. It works on leather and cloth seats.

How much is delivery, and how long does it take?

Delivery is free across South Africa. We ship with a tracked courier, and orders arrive in 3–5 working days (you'll see your exact dates above the Add to Cart button). You'll get a tracking link by email.

Can I return it?

Yes. You have 30 days from delivery to return it in its original condition for a full refund. Email us and we'll send you the return steps.

How do I clean it?

Shake off dry dirt and hair. For mud, wipe with a damp cloth or hose it down on the lawn. It can also go in the washing machine on a cold, gentle cycle. Air-dry only, no tumble dryer.

Is it a safety restraint for my dog?

No. It keeps your dog off the footwell and out of the front seats, which makes rides calmer, but it isn't a crash-tested restraint. For safety, clip your dog in with a seat-belt tether (you can add one above) and never leave them alone in a hot car.

What if it arrives damaged?

Email us a photo within 48 hours of delivery and we'll send a replacement for free. No need to send the damaged one back.
