We were looking for a double chaise that was made of wood, that could stay outside, fit our decor, and wouldn't break the bank. We passed on many of the offered options as they did not meet these criteria. We just assembled the chaise and the quality seems very good, assembly was easy (took about 30 minutes with two people), and it's very sturdy. We got the blue color and it's very rich and fits in well with our other outdoor furniture. The cushion is not the most comfortable thing, but it's adequate. Since the "bed" structure beneath the cushion is flat, and the cushion is not that thick, you feel the underlying structure. That's the only criticism in an otherwise really nice piece of outdoor furniture that should last a number of years. I would recommend a couple small pillows for head/neck support as well. I'd recommend looking at this double chaise if you are looking for an attractive, well made, functional, and cost-effective piece for your outdoor space.
