I looked at the chairs at pier one, then I saw this one, I did the comparison . I thought the pier one had better wicker closely knitted together and of course cost more. But I ordered this one because of the lower cost, I'm so glad I did. This chair is wonderful. It is so so comfortable. The pillows are flemsey compared to pier one, but they do the job, they are so comfortable. I feel asleep in the chair it was great. For me it definitely gets five stars. Worth every cent. Oh and it was a breeze to put together, very spacious chair.
