I love it. I left off the canopy so you look up at a tree and leaves. I love the slant of the back for sitting, that you can set it up to have a high back or low back, depending which way it faces. I like the grain of wood. Season one is successful so far. If you have it delivered, get confirmation from company and delivery company that it will be left where you want and need it. This was a problem for me, despite assurances it would be done properly. Otherwise, set up and use has been straighforward.
