This chair is a very good buy.  It's now eight months since we bought it and it's doing well.  Note that the seat of the chair is very deep.  We use an extra cushion for the back.  Also it is a bit stiff to push out the leg rest.  Really takes some effort.  Otherwise the chair is very well made, not too difficult to put together assuming you read and follow directions and it has done well both in our very hot summer and our cold winter on the porch.  Best deal out there for the price.
