While I didn't buy this product from Amazon - I have owned it for over a year and would recommend it to everyone. It was easy enough for me to put together by myself. I have it sitting on my front porch during the summer and it withstands the heat and rain. It is a great seat to share with my granddaughter - or when I just want to have some quiet time to myself. Everyone who enjoys sitting outside should have one of these.

This Glider was of a little higher quality than I might have thought for the price. It's easy to assemble, glides smoothly and quietly, is sturdy and is comfortable seating for long stretches. It fits nicely on our smaller porch where full sized items won't. We are well pleased, and somewhat pleasantly surprised. It also arrived a lot sooner than was predicted. I recommend it.

I have been searching for a glider for several years. I wanted one that would stand up to the elements including winter since I can't store it inside. This one is perfect and a great buy. Any I found at this price were flimsy and made with wood slats. The wood doesn't weather well and is uncomfortable. This glider will easily fit two people who are not made like Paris Hilton. It has a smooth glide and stands up to winter weather and rain. Plus the free shipping made it cheaper than in I found at local stores.

The glider arrived with written and illustrated instructions which were o.k. to follow. The suggested tools failed to mention that an allen wrench was needed to complete the assembling of the product. I am a female who weighs about 120 lbs. and I was able to put it together myself. It sits well, but the glide is a little short in my opinion. The construction is weather resistant and sturdy.

This is a very nice product. It was pretty easy to assemble and it appears very durable. My entire family loves it. I would have liked it if it was a bit longer (fit 3 people) right now it fits me and my husband and my 2 year old. My previous swing fit 3 adults comfortably.

The item arrived in very good condition. The instructions that came with it for putting it together, were very easy to follow. I would recommend Amazon again. Thank you.

From the picture, it looks like real quality, for the price. When I opened the box, it was just 2 pieces of plastic. . . but after being built, it is not as uncomfy to sit on as it would seem. It sits on my patio. It rocks smoothly and I am enjoying it, but I don't think it was worth its price.

I purchased this glider in Jan 2005, but it was out of stock until March. When it arrived, it was well worth the wait. I have it on my front porch facing a lake. It is a smooth glide, sturdy, comfortable & easy to clean. It really does take 2 people to put it together. Instructions were easy to follow.

Came with all parts, pretty easy to put together, was a little bit low to the ground for me - I'm 6ft - and it has a small swing radius, but appears sturdy and pretty maintenance free- ask me again in 5 years!

When I ordered this glider, (because of its low price), I thought that it would be just OK. When received (only two days later), and put together it was quite comfortable. I have a resin rocker which is too big. (My feet don't touch enough to push. I like the glider, my feet actually are in contact with the ground!) The instructions said that 2 people were needed to assemble. My husband had it together in 30 minutes. The putty is a nice, neutral color. Very nice!
