UPDATED to say the customer service is excellent!! They reached out to me to address the rust issue. Very impressed! Added stars for excellent customer service. I liked these chairs when they first arrived, as they are very comfortable. I do wish you could take the covers off and wash them, but that is not a big deal. My main issue is that the chairs rusted very quickly and are now very hard to open or fold. For outside chairs, I would expect them to stand up to the elements better. If you are looking for chairs you can leave outside 24/7, I would not get these. But if you don't mind packing them up and putting them away after every use, they are comfortable and I like that they are rockers.We are satisfied with this product thus far. We would like to be able to purchase a second side table for us to use, since we have the chairs in opposite corners of the patio.These were great, use them for camping, maybe 3,4 time a year and they are coming apart at the seams. Ive seen a number of reviews with the same issue so its a quality issue or a design flaw.So, I loved the chairs - the look, the material, the sturdiness - until I sat in one of them. One of the chairs had a slight bend in the right rocker so that when you rocked on a smooth surface, it 'crunked' back and forth. I know 'crunked' isn't a word, but it it how it felt to me when I rocked. So, if this review is about the one chair I would have to give it between a 1-3 depending on how much you hate 'crunkng' when you rock. However, if this rating is about the company (which it now has become), I have to give it between 5 -10 stars. This company was responsive from the get go, has been incredibly communicative, and wanted to make it right from the start. And even when they realized their business constrictions would now allow what they generously wanted to do, they bent over backward to make it right. Although I seldom have returns, I have never incurred a company that is as responsive as this company. I would do business with them again in a heartbeat.they seem pretty sturdy and I have one similar with same type material thats very comfortable, i plan to use them when we go camping & its a plus with the table, hopefully they will meet our needs,These were purchased to replace old chairs of a similar design. They are pricey but if they last as long as the last ones, they will be great. Good color too.We ordered these chairs as they were very similar to our favs that needed replacement. They are very sturdy and pretty comfy, but a big plus is that they were already assembled, and we just unfolded them. We are very pleased so far.
