I read the reviews and was a little hesitant because of the mentioned loose hardware comments. I chanced it and indeed, the nuts and bolts were out of their package and all over in the box, but they were all accounted for, thankfully!! I put it together myself and it took me awhile to figure it out, directions are sparse for a beginner at this kind of task, but I managed it and in the end was thrilled!! This chaise is my favorite spot to find in the yard to sit and read a book, it is so comfy and I love the pull out tray, keeps my drink from tipping over. Its sturdy, well made, easy to move around if your chasing shade or sun. Very happy!!
