I adore this chair! I ordered it specifically because it did NOT come with a stand because we intended to hang it from our large cedar tree at the edge of our patio. It's SO comfy, and I have gotten lots of compliments on it.

This photo was taken right after we hung it. I have since realized the pillow works way better lowered down so that it resides more on my neck. It's VERY fluffy.

The chair material seems very well suited for outdoors. The cushions we plan to store under the waterproof patio covers on our outdoor sectional. I wouldn't leave them out in the elements.
