When it comes to innovations in relaxation technology, hot tubs and hammocks are two of the most prototypical examples. The new Kickstarter-funded Hydro Hammock combines these two elements, resulting in a suspended, portable hot tub. The hammock can be filled with a simple garden hose, or by filling a bucket from a nearby water source. It uses non-chlorinated water and runs on less water and electricity than a traditional hot tub.

 

The Hydro Hammock can also be used on the beach or in the snow as a more traditional hot tub. Users can dig a hole for their hammock, allowing for a more stable and spacious hot tub experience.

 

The Single-Layer Hydro Hammock ($480) is relatively lightweight and is easier to transport, while the Double-Layer Hydro Hammock ($680), while somewhat heavier, provides an area for a thermal lining to be inserted. Additionally, the Portable Heater System ($1,950) turns what would otherwise be a swinging bath into a true steaming hot tub.

 

 

Each kit includes a water treatment strainer and a 12-volt pump, as well as a rechargeable battery that lasts up to three hours. Additionally, portable devices can be charged from a dry location with the two exterior USB ports.
