It's Great!!  Need 2 people to assemble it.  The directions could have been clearer.  Just diagrams of what to put what with what and where.   I laid all the parts out in order as illustrated in book and my boyfriend and I put it together. The color is NOT Red, it is a Maroon Burgundy and it is exactly the color Mom wanted!!  Very sturdy.  Comfy with 3 people on it.  The three of us (165lbs, 140lbs and 115lbs) sat on it together and felt very comfortable and NOT cramped!!  The cushions are on the "thinner side" ,HOWEVER, they are firm and supportive!!  Not flimsy and cheap!! If the color is what you are looking for...this is the Swing to buy!!  Mom LOVES it!!!
