First of all, the chair is a hit! I love it--it's everything I wanted and more. HOWEVER---the assembly is a freaking nightmare. Oh, those big heavy metal pieces go together without a hitch; it's the stretching of the pumpkin to get the screws in that took the most time. I read the reviews of customers saying the assembly and the instructions were horrible, but I thought Oh, that's them. I can DO this! WRONG! You will need at least 2 people to stretch the fabric pumpkin. Granted, I'm 63 and had my 60 year old sister helping me--and I even recruited my 92 year old dad to help put the screws in--but this part of the assembly is INSANE. The included sheet of poorly-photographed instructions make Ikea look like a Nobel Prize winner! PS the youtube videos aren't that helpful, either. In the end, I wish I'd lined up my help before I got so frustrated. Do yourself a solid and ask someone to assist!
Oh--the chair is comfortable, clever-looking, versatile, and private! I'm SO glad I bought it!
Great chair for a patio or balcony. The description should tell that the Cris cross material is made of elastic and not all weather wicker. The weather will dry out this elastic eventually and it will rot and break. Wish I knew this prior to paying this price for this item. Other than that, very roomy and solid comfy chair.
I am so happy I talked myself into this purchase. Something about this chair just gives me peace!
This is so cozy and I didn't even realize it came with 2 cup holders!
I only wish the cushion would tie down to the chair somwhow because it slips right off very easily.
Overall, I am pleased.
I got the black/sand stationary chair as a gift and was warned the reviews about assembly were rough. The other reviewers were right, this was pretty hard to put together. The biggest issue is that the instructions are unclear and the screws can be stubborn. I ended up stripping the screws that attach the bottom middle AND two allen wrenches. I bought my own screws with a phillips head and it was so much easier to put together afterwards. The cushion is pretty comfortable but is not able to be tied to any of the supports. I'm not sure if there will be an issue with it falling out.
Overall I'm very pleased with my chair and I'm looking forward to a summer of outdoor comfort!
Love this chair just wish it was made better. Came with hole in cushion, the frame had some damage to it that looks like was attempted to be repaired but failed, and all the material was sewn together pretty bad.

Buy your own screws! [M6-1.0 35]
