I searched for months for the perfect chair and finally decided on this one because of its slightly larger frame (than most I looked at), taller back, and poly wood material (because I don’t ever want to have to buy rocking chairs again). Overall, I am happy with the purchase. They look great and are heavy duty. I love that I will never have to sand and paint them and that they are easy to wash should I need to. However, I was a bit disappointed in the comfort level. I wish the seat was a bit deeper, sat a bit higher off the ground and was a bit more contoured. I felt as if I was being pushed forward in them when I initially sat in them and I couldn’t determine whether that was because of the taller straight back, the lack of a contoured seat or a mix of the two. I did, however, purchase cushions for them which did ultimately make them more comfortable. So, as I said, overall, I am happy with the purchase and would recommend — just be prepared to purchase some sort of cushion as well.
