I love this swing.  Looks great, but it DID NOT hold up under the elements.  I have on my covered front porch, not screened in or enclosed.  Depending on the weather, the rain will blow onto the porch.  By the time we had one or two rains, the chair was already molding.  The urethane coating was not enough to protect it.  I have cleaned it but some of the mold went deep very quickly so now I am having to paint.  If your swing will be subjected to the elements AT ALL, I would suggest sealing it further.  I did not have any issues with the ropes as some have mentioned, but you do need to buy hanging hardware.  Overall I really like but was disappointed that I have to do additional work to the swing.
