Put the cushions on right! Sep 10, 2010
By Bay Area booklover
"Celeste"
I received these chairs within a week of ordering them. They were packaged well and the guys that delivered it even carried it to my backyard for me. What's great about these chairs is not only do they look great and feel wonderful, but other than unwrapping them and putting on the cushions, there was nothing I *had* to do. (As a side note, I did spray 303 spray on the cushions to protect them from spills and the elements and it's probably best to do that right away, before an errant breeze or your first guest pours wine all over them.) There are no dents or scratches, which means the packaging was done well as there was a slight tear in the box and the only reason I didn't give it a full five stars are because there are one or two spots that need a little touch up paint, however, I should be able to get that from the manufacturer.
On the cushion note...don't get distracted by the velcro strap and think that it means that's the bottom cushion..it's NOT. The thicker cushion should be the bottom part of the cushion and the longer part is for the back of the chair. For those that think the chair is uncomfortable and you feel awkward seating in the chair, I GUARANTEE you have the cushions on backwards and most likely seeing the velcro tab probably made you think that's the bottom cushion, rather than the back of the cushion. As one who fell for the thought that the velcro tab meant it was the bottom cushion, given that the swirly design on the back didn't look like it was designed to have a velcro tab attached, it will make a huge difference when you put the cushion on upside down. When I first sat down (with the cushion on the wrong way), I was disappointed as it didn't feel like the chair rocked much and I felt like I was almost leaning forward in the chair, which is odd for such a deep chair. Given that I had already read about people putting the cushion on the wrong way, I decided to flip it around, even though the tab made it seem like I had put it on the right way. Yeah..I hadn't as there was a complete and utter difference and when you look at the chair, it also 'looks' right as the taller cushion is against the back and the thicker cushion is on the bottom. You can thread the velcro through the swirl design and secure the top cushion to the chair easily. Anyway, once I installed the cushion correctly (and yes, I realize it sounds like I lack intelligence when I admit I put the cushion on incorrectly, but in my defense, it did appear logical, based on the flat slats on the bottom on the chair and the velcro tab to secure the cushion), these were definitely the chairs I had hoped for and that I will spend many hours using, relaxing in my back yard. Great design and great quality chairs!

Not as durable as you think Apr 09, 2010
By Joshua D. Price I purchased the whole set about a year ago. For the price I paid, I almost wish I had saved it and gotten somethign else. Don't get me wrong...I love the way it looks and holds up. The chairs are very comfortable and the side table/ice chest things are a nice touch. But, I noticed the other day that one of the legs on the bench looked bent, and when I looked at it, it has a crack and there is a good chance it will break soon. This is after the glider/rocker chair broke while my brother and his girlfriend were sitting in it. Keep in mind...no one who has sat on the furniture is "larger" (I think the largest person to sit on my furniture was in the 220 lbs range, and that was only once). Luckily, I know someone who can weld...

Great Chairs, super value Apr 26, 2008
By C. Nikkel My husband and I are extreemly pleased with the quality of these chairs. We would have paid twice as much for them in the store. The rocking feature makes it very comfortable and the cushions are suprisingly good quality. I could see replacing them after a few seasons, but they look as nice as some of the cushions you would pay $200 for.

Excellent Value Mar 15, 2008
By AZ Desert Rat
"movie buff"
Received these chairs yesterday by truck freight. Packaged very well. I was extremely surprised at the quality of these chairs for the money. Cushions are very thick and comfortable. If I were to buy this quality of chair at one of our patio stores it would be at least double. Very pleased with this purchase.

absolutely stunning Apr 17, 2008
By stickybrea
"Waiting for delivery"
These chairs look expensive and are very comfortable. If I had room I would have brought another set. The photos of the chairs are bit off, the color of the chair is a dark dark brown with flecks of silver not bronze as depicted in the photo. Notwithstanding, I am still very pleased with this purchase.
