Does NOT include stand. 
Despite describing the stand in the second line of the description AND describing the product as "porch swing with stand" under specifications, it does NOT include the stand. This was extremely disappointing and I had to pay $50 to send them back because I couldn't use them without the stand. I'm only giving it 2 stars because the chair itself was gorgeous and well made. If you don't need a stand, it's a nice product.
