This chair rocks

Pun 100% intended. But seriously this thing is incredibly well designed and very easy to assemble. The material will hold up to most weather conditions. Its also heavy enough where you don't need to worry about it blowing away in moderately strong winds.

Thanks for the review and the pun! We're so happy that you like the design and material of our rocking chair and found the assembly was easy. Our chairs are made to weather the elements and will stay put in a good wind. Thanks!Lana

Lacking Quality Control!

We looked forward to receiving these rocking chairs by Polywood as we have other chairs by them. However, there seemed to be some quality control issues. We ordered 2 rockers and both had holes drilled in the wrong spot, one was missing 2 holes and one of the "rockers" holes were so misaligned making the rocker crooked when put together. We returned them. The other chairs we have by Polywood are quality so I am unsure went went wrong with these rockers.

Hi Mainiac, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are very sorry chairs were not in ready-to-assemble condition out of the box. That's not the kind of experience we want for our customers. We hope your return was easy and seamless and we hope to have the opportunity to win back your confidence in our furniture in the future.Thank you,Lana

Best porch rockers for inclement weather

Sturdy, weatherproof & comfy! These arrived pretty quick. The assembly was super easy ( not too many parts) & straightforward. The material is a composite and perfect for extreme weather, both hot & cold. They are veey comfortable & very sturdy. So happy with my purchase!

Nice Looking and Appears to be Solid

My wife and I purchased these from Sam’s about 2 weeks ago. They look great and appear to be built somewhat well. Only 2 complaints, or rather thoughts about the chair overall and the purchase. First, chair overall, is not the most comfortable rocking chair, but if we purchase a cushion for the seat and possibly the back, it will be better, however, that being said, they could be worse. Second, the store only had black to choose from. To get any of the other colors you would need to order them online through the manufacture.

Rocking Chair

Too short and the seat is too small; it's only suitable for short people because it's very uncomfortable for people of average height.

reply from POLYWOOD Brand Expert

Hey there, thank you for sharing your feedback on the chair! While the Gulf Shores Adirondack Rocking Chair is designed with a classic, compact seating style, we understand that the seat depth and size may feel too small for individuals of average or taller height, which can impact overall comfort. This style tends to be better those who prefer a more upright seating position. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, as it helps other customers make a more informed decision. Best, The POLYWOOD Team

Very uncomfortable

Chair sits you straight up and makes back hurt.

Hi Brenda! Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear the chair isn’t as comfortable as you’d hoped. Our designs aim to provide ergonomic support, but we understand that comfort can vary from person to person. A seat cushion or lumbar pillow might help improve the fit for your back. We truly appreciate you sharing your experience—it helps us continue to improve our products. Thank you, Amber
