5.0 out of 5 stars Bliss no more -- it broke! no stars (can't edit this) April 10, 2007

By Brook Pearson

My OLD review: I had used a friend's hammock chair before buying my own, but his was made of very thin synthetic threads that catch quite easily on buttons, etc. Not so with the Charleston! The cotton rope that makes up the weave is very comfortable to sit in all on its own, or with the chair cushion that is provided, and, if it happens to catch on something, it's no big deal. All I have to monitor with the kids is how far they swing...

I love it, my wife loves it, my kids love it. Can't wait to take it camping this Summer (though I may never leave the chair. Someone else has fire duty from now on).

AND NOW: well, the thing broke, repeatedly and in multiple places. The top part broke within a couple of months, at which point I filled out my warranty card and received a nice e-mail asking if I would send photos. When I finally got around to sending the photos, they included the several other places where the strands had simply snapped. I have not heard from Outback since sending the photos. DO NOT BUY THIS! Feels great to start, then falls to pieces. Total rip-off.

4.0 out of 5 stars Some not what they appear to be on line. January 3, 2009

By Suzanne Newell

Outback Chair CCH-237 Charleston Rope Chair . I have reviewed the customer pictures and reviews. It is obvious that some people are not getting the Charleston Rope Chair. This happened to me after my daughter bought me the real one for Christmas...I went back to Amazon in Aug to order another and although the picture showed it to be the same from a contract vendor; when it arrived, it was an imitation Omni swing for the same price as the Charleston Chair 79.95. No wonder one of the customer reviews said that she could not stretch out in hers. I am 5'9" and have plenty of room.
I had also ordered from another contract vendor, what I knew to be the Omni swing for less than 30.00 and I knew it would not be up to the same standard. That was fine. They refunded me 10.00 for not having the hardware as listed on the order. No problem. After receiving both swings I had two of the same chairs, same boxes and product #s, one being 40.00+ more. I had a very long and heated debate online and off with the other vendor,(who by now had already changed the name of their company on line, don't know what they are calling themselves now) of the so called Charleston Chair and ended up spending 16.00+ nonrefundable postage, to send it back to get my purchase refund from Amazon and the contract vendor. All the vendor could do was complain about how much money they were losing by returning my money. (They even wanted me to spend the postage to send back their unsolicited catalog and coupon card for another order)I was willing to keep the chair at its real worth. Said they could not make a partial refund, knew that was not the case. I lost 16.00+ and had nothing to show for it but a bad experience. Now I am hesitant to order another, that I may be stuck with another return postage for the wrong swing. As noted on the pictures from customers..some got the imitation not the real one. If you don't have a real Charleston Chair you may not know the switch. The pole is carved on the real one and it should have a small cushion in it. BEWARE! I will have to be guaranteed to receive the right one with return postage paid to order anything again from Amazon.

5.0 out of 5 stars So glad I purchased. June 27, 2007

This has to be one of the most comfortable lounges I have been in. Not confining and so much room. Love the fact that you can lay back with feet up and go right to sleep or read a book.
