The seating is comfortable, thick and sturdy. We weather-guarded the fabric, it's been easy to clean so far. I've been enjoying the flexibility of seating positions. After comparing products and prices, this patio lounger seemed the most affordable, I was delighted to find that it's also excellent quality. I'm a little wary of how the white stripes will hold up with weather and potential staining, but so far, it's been great, love the pattern.
