I looked around and read all the reviews before deciding on this chaise lounge.  I ended up spending a little more money than I originally set out to do, but wanted to be sure I got  quality product.  I absolutely LOVE these lounge chairs!!!  They are beautiful and I receive so many compliments on them.  They came pretty much assembled we only had to put 3 screws into each leg.  They are sturdy, wide and comfortable!!  I have 3 of them and would buy these again.
