Awesome price

Members Mark, Teak Glider Bench is not teak. It does not have the grain or color of teak. After one year, it has not weathered well. I have teak furniture, so I was please to this bench, so I bought it. However, in my opinion this is not teak. Yes I would recommend this glider, knowing it is not teak.

I was a little afraid the glider might have some damage in shipment, but every piece of it arrived in perfect condition. The fit and finish of all the parts was excellent and required no sanding anywhere before staining and sealing with epoxy sealer. It does take longer to assemble than the Sam's teak rocker I had already purchased, but it was well worth the effort. I'm 70 with a lot of arthritis and have to move slowly, but I had this glider put together by myself in a little over an hour using only the recommended hand tools. The most difficult part for me was installing the wood screws to finish securing the seat bottom and moving the finished glider where I wanted it to sit - it's not all that light after assembly and is a fairly large piece. There was no wood glue provided like came with the rocker, but that is nothing a little Elmer's can't take care of - if you want to glue the joints (the instruction made no mention of this being needed). This glider is now residing on my fully enclosed front porch - so I don't have to ever worry about any weathering. It should remain looking great and working excellent well after I'm no longer around. It goes great with all my other Sam's Member's Mark furniture on the porch - making my porch, with its many large windows, a great sitting room I can now enjoy year-round.

The quality of the wood is excellent, really grade A teak. The QC is mediocre. Most of hte parts were fine except 2 issues: 1) It comes with 2 base legs, one on each side, with protrusions to connect to the main chair. The protrusions went off at different angles (not 90 degrees), so when connected to the chair, hte base twists and then it doesnt sit flat on the floor. So the base wobbles. 2) The stainless washers did not have round holes, more oval shaped. I called the support line and they shipped me regular washers, non stainless, so they would rust. Had to go buy stainless washers myself for $10. I also used a teak sealer before it was assembled to keep the wood color.

I am really disappointed in the finish. I expected unfinished wood- I was going to oil the glider-, but it's not just unfinished. It's very rough, lots of jagged edges and splintered ends. It's going to take quite a bit of effort to sand it and just make it so it's not going to catch my shirt and clothes while sitting. It's like someone took a 40/60 grit sandpaper to some parts. Overall a very low quality factory assembly. There's what look like black oil stains or paint, and I had to remove what looked like globs of dried glue, but they didn't leave marks, so... It is a comfortable bench if I don't consider those things. I probably would have gone for the painted finished version, I still might.

Received this as a gift, took it out the box to assemble. Threw away the box only to realize 2 of the gliding stretch metal pieces werent in the box. Also arm rest was cracked in 2 places which i fixed myself so i wouldnt have to return. Called the 800 number and they refused to send me the 2 missing pieces because i didnt have a receipt or the box even tho i explained it was a gift. No manager available because he was "sick". Now i have a piece of furnuture collecting dust. TERRIBLE customer service. would not recommend.

So happy with this purchase that I went ahead and ordered a second one. The first one actually had a broken part and another area that was nicked. I reached out to the company's customer service and was sent the a replacement part right away. They even replaced the part that was nicked and sent it from their overseas warehouse!

Started on the assembly but couldn't even put the first bolt in because i was sent the wrong part. When I called the company, instead of just sending out the part I needed, I had to send them photos of the wrong part and photos of my Sams order number through email. What a pain! It has been 2 days and still haven't gotten a response saying the part has been shipped. Why can't I just call, give them my order information and have them send me the right part! You would think as a Sam's Club member, I wouldnt have to go through all of this.

Looks great but took awhile to put together. Also 2 people make doing so much easier.

Easy assembly, sturdy, nice teak glider.
