Novogratz Poolside Gossip, Connie Outdoor Chaise Lounge, White

My husband assembled the Chaise Lounger and told me the process of assembly was not difficult for him. It took him no more than 30 minutes total. Without looking at directions, he only had to reposition, reassemble, one piece. Yay! The Chaise Lounge is quite heavy. You can lift one side with one hand, but you do feel the substantial weight. Having a good weight is a plus in windy conditions, as it is sure to stay put. The metal frame was without one mar or blemish seen, and the frame had a very thick covering of white paint, which should deter any future rust. I like the look of the lounger. The adjustable recline of the back of the lounger will adjust to multiple positions, and will also lay completely flat in the extended position. There is a small support pillow included. My husband uses the small pillow under his head, but I find the chair to be so comfortable and relaxing, and use the pillow across the lower part of my back. The arm height is perfect for just relaxing or holding a book to read while under my shady Elm tree. The supplied cushion for the lounger covers the length of the chair well. It is about 5-6 inches thick with supportive and comfortable foam. I love that a rain cover is included because I would not want to have to continually move this chair inside to out due to it's weight. Pros: Built to be durable, Comfortable Cushion, Supportive. Attractive Look, Substantial weight, Thickly painted frame. Multiple Adjustments of seat back, Included rain cover Cons: Weigh will be a con for some as it will not be easy to move around from place to place for one person.

This product was slightly over budget but overall I'm satisfied with it's quality
