Sturdy Heavy Chairs Once Received, but Fragile During Shipping Apparently
This set of 2 chairs were poorly packed for one arrived with the back off and the other had small chunks of the seating material on one side knocked off. Ive been working without success in getting the back of the one chair reattached. It looks like it should be straightforward but since the material these are made from is so stiff, I havent had any luck fitting this back into both of the holes needed to attach to stabilize the back. The chair with the small chunks knocked out does not hurt the function of the chair any and most casual observers wouldnt even notice. These chairs were shipped in a long cardboard box with a couple of white plastic pieces securing them on the inside as well as a couple of extra pieces of cardboard. I think they need more protection than that. The best thing about these chairs is they are heavy and wont blow away or over in the wind. They also look nice. The backs, at least for the one that works, can be adjusted to 4 different angles along with simply be flat for lying on. The one I cant get back in place can be used for lying on. These chairs will be more comfortable with an investment in chair pads and pillows. I placed these chairs to catch the morning sun and be in the shade in the afternoon. Although it hasnt gotten hot here yet, I do find myself wondering how much heat the charcoal gray, which is quite dark, will collect in the sun. My rating is 3 stars. They are good chairs if wind is a concern and these will stay in place. However, the damage done in shipping is a pain. They look good although theyre not particularly comfortable.
