If you want extreme comfort, this is IT!  It is quite sturdy.  I live near the shore and we are prone to great winds.  So far, this chair has withstood the gales.  I bought two and am more than satisfied.  Assembly was a challenge for my 'handy man' once he realized he was placing the back backwards, all was fine.  If done correctly, it won't take more than 1 minute.  Definitely took longer to unwrap but well worth it!
