Perfect for poolside. The white cushions repel water, stay cool and clean up is a breeze. I bought two. They were easy to assemble. The cushion looks thin in the pic but in real life they are thick enough so that you don't feel the boards beneath you. Unlike similar acacia wood furniture I have purchased the stain does not transfer to the cushion. We are very happy with these. The only improvement I could suggest would be that the design include wheels on one end for an easier time moving around when you want to get in or out of the sun. But for the price I guess I could alter the chaises myself and have a perfect lounging spot.
