Really like the chair.  I put it together by myself.  Two assemblers would be much faster! It does not have the seat structure like the original chairs of the 70's but it has a steel frame covered with a plastic rattan appearing material.  It does not have a seat platform; the cushion sits on the curve of the frame.  Would hold up better outside than the original style perhaps.  I originally suspended my my chair from the ceiling, but this one has the frame.  I like the frame to move the chair around but prefer the feel of swinging with a ceiling mount.  Regardless, I am very happy with this chair!
