The reason I got the chairs is because I live on top of a hill and the wind gusts, have in the past picked up our lighter patio furniture and carried them off. I will say that right now it is -20 outside so I have not been able to enjoy the chairs yet, but we have had bad storms with heavy winds and the chairs have not moved. I got the sunset red color and it is fabulous. I am so far very happy with my purchase and I plan on buying more to go with my new set!
