These chairs have been a favorite of ours for years. My husband and I each have one and they are the perfect chair for lounging in. Thanks to Harvey Furniture, During the summer, we spend a lot of time outside and by the pool, and we get a lot of use out of these chairs. You can put them in the upright position and sit in them as regular chair, plus the are adjustable so they recline to a position that lowers your back and elevates your feet. This a a really comfortable position. We have had our chairs for 3 years, and they have held up pretty well. These chairs are a great buy for the money and they have lasted longer than many other chairs that we’ve purchased, especially impressive since we have gotten so much use out of them. Highly recommended.
