It is very comfortable. Just like the old wicker version that I remember from childhood.  I do appreciate that the steel frame bolts together so the bowl of the chair doesn't move the way the old school models did but I miss the warmth of the natural material. Mine also arrived with the frame coated in what I hope is just dust and not an indication of rust. Hands and floor were filthy after assembly. The cushion is great, very comfortable and has 4 ties on the back to secure it to the frame, another upgrade from the older version.
