This is a really good quality chair and the recipient (it was a gift) informs me it is very comfortable, and dries quickly when it rains. My one complaint is that on this site it says 'no assembly required', which was important since it was being delivered directly to someone as a birthday present. In fact, it arrived in pieces and although the assembly was quick and easy (so I'm told) I was still embarrassed they had to build their own present when it had stated otherwise.
