Okay, so this is not going to match what you get if you pay $200 a chair, but it is an excellent product for at this price point. Since it is new, can't speak to durability, but for looks, construction and ease in assembly, haven't seen anything come close. In that regard, saw a couple of reviews about problems assembling, but as someone who has put together dozens if not a hundred or more Chinese products, this has the best assembly scheme I have seen. It uses a bolt and nut combination that allows user alignment if pre-drilled holes in legs and arms if pre-drilled holes are slightly off from the factory. Cannot see how someone would have run into trouble assembling these.

A picture on this websites dropdown shows this chair folded in half for storage....They DO NOT FOLD!!! Happy with the chair but unless someone reads all the questions previously asked (which I did not do) it is deceiving to a buyer. The fact that it showed this chair folded was one of the reasons I chose it. Sam's needs to remove that picture from their website.

I bet you the people writing bad reviews didn’t have the metal anchors properly seated. Especially on the arms, they tend to fall out of place. Most of the bad reviews mention breakage where the chair back connects to the arms. If that happens, you’re screwing metal into plastic and it’s going to break. I used a small piece of tape to keep the metal anchor in place while I attached the arms. I verified that it’s correctly anchored. We’ll see if there’s any breakage, but I think that solved it. To the manufacturer, some of the metal anchors slot into place, and especially with some force, line up correctly. But you’re going to keep getting returns especially because the arm anchor in the back doesn’t stay in place as you flip it over.

I was a little apprehensive about this from the negative assembly reviews, but I am pleased with the product. Getting the backing nuts to line up perfectly with the holes is critical for the proper assembly. I could see how someone could cross- thread the screws if not careful. You can use a slightly narrower Philips head screwdriver to line up the backing nuts through the screw holes, and then the threads align properly.

These are absolute garbage. First, they are a very cheap plastic. That would be okay given the price. The real issue is assembly. They are a simple concept to assemble, but the hardware is so cheap that the screws go in part way, then strip. No way to remove the screw, no way to get it all the way in. Cutting the head off doesn’t help because of how the backing nut is inserted. So you are basically out of luck, unless you tap all of the backing nuts ahead of assembly.

Bought 2 last spring. Have had them outside for a year now. Heavy winds, no problem they didn't blow away. Large seating area for my fat bottom and seem very heavy duty. I'm 6'3 and weigh 285, no issues at all with the sturdiness of the chairs. The cup holders are.a nice add, we use them a lot. The sun doesn't seem to have done any damage to the color or strength. Over the winter we left them out on the hill, uncovered. No issues there either. Very easy to fall asleep in these things. If you wanted to add cushions it would make them all the more comfortable. Well, after 1 year, I'm going back to buy 2 more for the back yard. Hope this helps in your decision making.

Extremely easy to put together. Very durable, Really heavy and super comfy.

I loved the chairs, however one of them has a crack across the seat. Brand new and never used.

Comfortable, easy to assemble. Strong material, very sturdy. Worth the cost.

Exactly what I expected. Comfortable and decent quality
