Wonderful Product!I ordered 4 of these chairs. They were delivered right on time for my upcoming BBQ. They were very easy for me a young 5' woman to assemble. The only thing I can think of that might not be so awesome is that three of the dowels supplied for assembly didn't quite end up flush with the holes but they were very easy to shave off with just a box-cutter. The material is very good quality. I have no worries of getting splinters when I jump on and off of them. Like I said I'm 5' so it takes some effort for me to get on and off of them but they are very sturdy & stable for climbing on. I wouldn't even be nervous to stand on these as a ladder to reach things up high. That's kind of a big deal when you're short but still independant.

Great outdoor style wonderful price!I have the Balboa Collection; the corner piece armless chair and the chaise and have been very happy with it. I have had it for over a year on my patio and think that it looks great the perfect piece for enjoying summer outdoors. The wood has held up well there are a few places that it has split but nothing major and they are barley noticeable mainly on the bottom of the legs. This occurred during winter since I live in a place with a lot of moisture I figured not storing the wood indoors could affect it and was pleasantly surprised with the minimal amount of splitting. The cushions have held up well too (I bring them inside during the winter to store them) and are very comfy. The depth on the pieces are good for relaxing and the chaise is great to stretch out and read in the sun. I will mention that the chaise is not long enough to lay completely on your back and not have your feet hang off the edge but it is the right size for reading while sitting and stretching out your legs. The ottoman has come in very handy as an extra place to stretch your legs if another person is sitting in the chaise portion or I have used it without the cushion as a cocktail table to put the wine and cheese on. Overall I think that the Balboa collection is a great item for my yard and am very happy with the quality and price.

Excellent!!!I was extremely aprehensive at first based on previous seller feedback and the fact that these items were so inexpensive. All arrived on time and in perfect condition. The quality of wood is impressive. Solid strong and beautiful. Comparable to Cost Plus or Pier 1. Plus the design was exactly what we were looking for. Easy to assemble too.

ZERO RECLINING FOREVERI saw these chairs years ago while vacationing in Maine but they were out of my price range so I forgot about them. Man am I sorry about that!! I ordered my recliner 3 days ago and got it today. As soon as I SAT in it I knew it was great but when I reclined in it I was in heaven.
The heighth of the SEAT of the chair is several inches higher than most other chairs. That makes it so much easier to get in and out of. This IS THE MOST COMFORTABLE chair/recliner I have ever been in. I decided to replace my recliner in the living room with one of these Zero gravity recliners. I am also looking for one to use in the bedroom to lounge in before bedtime.
I didn't realize they came in padded and not padded. Fortunately I chose the padded. It is very comfortable. I also got the XL and love the roominess of it. The extra length is nice also. Very fast delivery great price and I have nothing to complain about.
PS: I am getting a few more of these for the yard also.

great looking and stylish for the price!I received the chairs today and am pleased with the way they look. I also love how light yet how sturdy they are. However they do not come fully assembled as the description states. The foot rests on the sides of the chairs have to be put on and on one chair the screw holes didn't line up exactly right. Still for the money (considering I needed 10 to go around our outside kitchen/bar) they are a definitely a good buy.
I have purchased other Strathwood products (chaises side tables the 48 inch round table and four swivel chairs.) This stuff looks like it cost much more - a "Frontgate" look for a fraction of the price. The cushions on the chairs are kind of cheap but as an interior designer I can have cushions made easily enough. I don't love the off white fabric on any of these pieces but do love the "bones" of the Strathwood furniture and have recommended it to clients. Once recovered in a better material I know I will get many many years of use. This may not be practical for some people so I thought I should make mention of this. To me the fabric is the only real negative.

Great Chair!I've had this chair (in Hunter Green) for over two years and it is the best I've ever had. The chair itself is very sturdy heavy plastic and the seat is generously sized. The chair was also very easy to assemble but not flimsy or fragile the way many do-it-yourselfers often are. It is easily the most comfortable rocking chair I've ever owned wooden ones included.
Get this one and you won't be sorry.
The only negative thing I can say is that Amazon.com doesn't offer the chair in green.

Strathwood Balboa Deep SeatingI purchased the Balboa seating for my screened porch. I was pleased with the quality and colour of the wood it`s very heavy and feels sturdy. One of the problems I encountered however was that not all of the screw holes had been drill out properly making some of the screws virtually impossible to get in. But what really disappoints me is the cushions. Within a few weeks of having the furniture they were covered in mildew. Considering this is supposed to be outdoor furniture and mine is undercover it is very poor indeed. I`m really disappointed and the mildew is proving difficult to move making the whole set look really unsightly and unusable. A big thumbs down!

Beautiful Piece Great BargainThis is an absolutely beautiful piece of outdoor furniture and at an incredibly reasonable price. Other merchants would charge the same price for just the 5" thick beautifully upholstered seat cushion. The loveseat arrives fully assembled - just unwrap the plastic and padding put the cushion on and sit down! I bought the matching chairs and they are just as lovely. I will be watching for more furniture items from this company.

Excellent ValueReceived 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.

great valueWithout question these chairs meet all my expectations. The price/quality rating is 8+. Living in a tropic location we could not find anything comparable to this. The retail on this is more like the sales price at the local patio shops. Very happy to have been able to purchase from Amazon.
