Who builds outdoor patio furniture with exterior bolts that are open to the environment? Ever heard of stainless steel or coating the bolts so they don't rust and leave rust stains on your deck? I've had these just over a month (so I can't return them now) and yes they were a little bit of a pain to assemble, they do look nice when you first buy them, but with rusted bolts and rust under the wicker it's a terrible purchase.  As you pick up your chair to move it to a different location the rust water runs all over you and your deck.  I would not buy these if they will be outside at all.

Pros: Sturdy
Cons: Rusted bolts, a little difficult to assemble.
