Ivy Terrace IVS112-1-MA Classics 3-Piece Rocker Seating Set, Mahogany

Originally I was going to purchase two wooden rocking chairs from Home Depot and I also considered Cracker Barrel because I heard they sell a lot of outdoor porch furniture. But the sun rises directly in front of my house and reeks havoc on any thing on my porch. I then discovered the benefits of composite or faux wood, which means no maintenance or repainting EVER! There are two companies that dominate sales of this "Plastic-Wood" furniture. They both are similar in price and both are way too expensive. I'm glad I found Ivy Terrace I will be back to buy more in the future. They are so much more affordable. These Rocking Chairs are very high quality and absolutely beautiful. The size is perfect. Not over sized or too big and not skimpy and little. The assembly was quite simple if you can operate a screwdriver or screw-gun. The only part that did not line-up perfectly when assembling these chairs was the curved legs at the bottom that allows the chair to rock.. My advice when you assemble the legs is to run the long screws all the way through the rocking leg and then insert the end or tip of the screw into the pre-drilled holes of the chair and you will have no trouble getting them tightened. I recommend using a driver/drill to speed up the process and save your hands from all the turning.These chairs come with a very good warranty as well. I LOVE MY NEW ROCKING CHAIRS AND LITTLE TABLE ! !

Two days later, I have gotten over my irritation at assembling the first chair (original 1-star review, below). The second chair went together in about 20 minutes. The little table took about 5 minutes total. Ant the set looks great on my patio. We've had a couple of severe thunder storms with high winds, and the chair and table are so solid that they have not moved an inch. They are very comfortable. Giving 4-stars because it took a couple of hours and a trip to Home depot to assemble the first chair.My original review: I have assembled all kinds of stuff over many (many) decades. After buying something at this price point, I did not expect to have to use a metal file to make the pieces fit. . I noticed in an earlier review that you need a rubber hammer; well, I'm going to use the rubber hammer after I file these pieces into place. I'm going to continue putting these things together because I have a hope that they will look OK once assembled. Too much trouble to re-box and send back..

And for the cost, the expectations were high. Felt a little stupid spending this much on two sets when you can find a ton of more affordable options, but I have to say, these look & feel as though they will be around much longer than I will be. Solid, solid, solid. They're going through their first winter now, uncovered, and look like they did on Day One. Easy to put together; easier when you have a helper to hold/stabilize parts while assembling. I forgot my drill and had to use the included hex wrench. Still went smooth, but probably tripled the time (use a drill with a hex bit!) unless you're trying to get your forearms to look like Popeye's. Worth every penny, Prime Shipping and Highly Recommended.

Heavier than my old wood ones, which is good so they are less likely to blow off the porch during storms. Assembly was somewhat difficult but only because I had to loosen some of the screws that were in the seat to make the seat fit the slots. If they would fit the chair together before shipping they would see the problem before shipping. Both seats had to be adjusted. Backs and all other rails were a good fit.Looks good will be interesting to see how they look after a long time on the porch.

This set is expensive but not as much as some other brands like Trex. It is a solid composite construction and is heavy and sturdy.Setup was pretty simple. They supply a nice T wrench for the Allen bolts and even a small Allen bit for a power drill. Get the bolts threaded by hand and zip thim in with the drill and finally hand tighten them snuggly with the wrench. I think each chair took no more than 10 minutes to setup.They look great out front and are comfortable to relax in. The best part is the composite material. It will never rot out and cleaning will be simple.

My husband just put these together a few days ago. Pleased with quality, especially for price. He had same issue that other reviews pointed out. Once he had first one assembled, the other was quite easy. Time will tell on how they hold up in weather. Overall, very pleased with appearance.

I ordered these and was happy to see that the construction was solid. However in putting them together discovered that the top portion cutout didn't fit the top board. The opening is too small. I had to do some hacking with a drill to get it to fit. I hate doing that. See the photo to see what I' talking about. The material is like molded plastic to its not too hard to work with, but why should I have to do this?

Was looking for reasonably priced synthetic rockers.These fit the bill and while not cheap had best reviews for the money.Relatively easy install but requires some good torque at times.Only complaint is that a couple of the bolts are a different size and it isn’t visibly obvious unless you line them up.
