Poor Quality
1 out of 5 stars review

Lifetime??????

I purchased guider believing it was a maintenance free lifetime quality product. Wrong … after seven years the bearing all rusted out of rocker arms and luckily no one was injured when they failed and disconnected from the base. Buyer Beware and budget S12.00 because every seven years you will need to purchase the replacement arms for the guilder or it will not function, but you’ll have some nice Lifetime yard art!!

Oh, no! We're glad that no one was injured. These benches have a 2-year warranty, so we're happy to hear that it lasted 5 years longer than the warranty period.

Lifetime Products are the Best!

I bought a Lifetime glider that had been sitting on someone's very narrow front porch for about 6 years. We proceeded to sit it in front of our house, under a edge of a Japanese maple for another 5 years. We then moved it some land we bought deep in the country where it has now been sitting for another 6 years. Sure, the surface is looking a bit rougher but it still glides smoothly and does not have any rust. And I have never lubricated any of the moving parts. I am a Lifetime Products customer for life and about to buy one of the storage sheds!

Smooth glid!

We bought two Lifetime Glider Benches for our cabin and we should have bought more because those are the chairs everybody fights to sit in! We love them. They glide so smoothly and they are comfy! Plus they withstand extreme weather conditions and still look like new.

Great when it works, but poor material durability, flawed bearing design, flawed construction.

Poor material durability: The all weather powder coated finish is rusting off after only 1 California rainy winter. In addition, the screws that fasten the plastic planks to the frame continually rust and have to be replaced. See photos. Flawed bearing design: The glider sits on sets of bearing sleeves which are poorly designed and keep failing. The inner sleeve strips out and I have had to rig up a solution using several sets of washer and some concave bicycle brake shoe washers. See photo. Flawed construction: The screws that attach the plastic planks to the frame are inadequate. Too short, misaligned to the pre-drilled holes and rust prone. The back and forth movement of the glider causes the boards to continually pop out and I have had to re-screw, re-drill or glue the boards back down. See photo.

Solid built and looks great too

I bought my glider about 2 years ago. It has sit outside on my back patio ever since. It is still in great shape especially since it has been outside though the hot summers as well as the cold winters here in Utah. Even after all of that it still works like the day I bought it. I would say it isn't the most comfortable bench I have ever sat on but at the same time it is most definitely not the worst I have sat on either. I like to smooth gliding motion it has. Again even after all this time it is still just as smooth as it ever has been. Overall I think its a great product.

We use this everyday

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great glider bench that we have on our front porch. The kids love to sit on it and eat popcicles and I love the glider feature. I have sat here rocking a few of my babies while I enjoyed being outside.

Good Glider

Impressed with the materials used for this glider. Will not rot like our previous wooden glider! Assembly instructions were not in package and must be secured via Lifetime website. Packaging for glider needs to be improved as I had to repair bent screws. The pivot bars have tack welds that will break if not attached gently. Expect this glider to survive exposed to the elements.

The assembly instructions should have been included. I'm so sorry they were missing. Thanks for the feedback. I am going to forward your suggestions to our packaging team to see if we can make some improvements.

Updated Product?

Description of bench led me to believe seating surface was plastic wood (Polystyrene) as listed in the specifications and product description. The seating surfaces and back are wood grain painted metal tubes. The construction of the entire bench is solid. I will wait to see how well the metal holds up in direct sunlight and if it dents or deforms in daily use.

Screw broke

I purchased this on May 13, 2020. I didn't put it together for about a week. It was sat on about twice and the next time it was used I noticed that a screw holding the slats on had broken. I noticed that others had this issue. Maybe there is something wrong with the design. If that could be fixed, it would be a really nice bench. I hope my husband can figure out a way to make it work.

parts for glider

I have 2 of your gliders and they are great outdoors. I had the rubber feet wear out or fall out on them (so far 2 on each one). I sent an email and got a response from your techs and got 8 new rubber feet in the mail. Great service. We really like the gliders.
