LIFETIME Adirondack Chair, Brown

Lovely chair. Reasonably easy to assemble. Very comfortable

Have admired these chairs for a few years now and decided to treat my self and ordered two, not sure the quality of product is as good as my friends ones purchased a few years ago and definitely needed some help assembling, see attached pictures, overall disappointed considering price. 🥹

The video to assemble makes it look easy. It’s not as the holes are not pre drilled. Ended up screwing in the screws to make the holes bigger then assembling it, managed to fit all the screws except the last 2. I have had one previously and wasn’t this hard to assemble. Also if two people are recommended, say so in the add not when the box is opened

Solid and very comfortable, but sadly after one short summers use already looking very shabby - the chairs mark very badly if you use them wearing sunscreen and no amount of scrubbing or cleaners remove it - no warnings or cautions in the documentation with the chair - contacted Lifetime to be told I need to paint the chair - the whole point in getting these was to avoid painting and maintenance you’d expect with wooden chairs - so in a nutshell - avoid !!

Really disappointed Screw holes don’t match up !! Stews strip Was going to buy two but got one first to see the quality… Won’t be buying another

This is a solid chair, very sturdy. Assembly is a bit of a challenge and if you use the small Allen-head wrench provided with the screw package it will be difficult. Assembly is best accomplished with better tools. I bought 5 of these chairs and it took me roughly 50 minutes to assemble each of them. The packaging is very good and units are HEAVY! I purchased them as outdoor chairs and decided on the polystyrene composite because of it no-maintenance. I wish the wooden chairs were less maintenance-free but wood also tends to cause splinters, need to be stained at some time as it ages and harder to clean (ie: bird poop). With the exception of 4-screws (set them aside so that you don't accidently use them, those 4 screws will be used for the very last step), all the screws are the same. Use a box cutter to trim away the 4 edges of the screw package as opening the screw package as is will likely result in screws flying everywhere. THERE ARE NO SPARE SCREWS so be aware that you'll need them all for complete assembly. The good news is that the screws are very durable. The holes are pre-drilled in the planks. Once the screws are tightened, the head of the screws should not protrude from the board. The instructions are basic. I built the chairs in my brightly lighted garage. the light helps when matching up the pre-drilled holes. Here are the tools I found very helpful. A flashlight (to help in low light to find & match the holes), a T-handled 4mm Allen-head wrench,{optional: electric-clutch adjusted drill. A drill adapter that will fit a socket 4mm Allen-head}, A box cutter, and a good music channel. That little Allen wrench provided in the kit will add 2-3x the effort and time and you be using "colorful-metaphors" before finishing your FIRST chair! Go to Lowes or Home Depot and get a 4mm T-handled Allen wrench, they're cheap and you don't need the drill setup I mentioned earlier. Much of the chair already comes preassembled but I gave the screws that were already in place a snugged-up twist a little more. With the exception of the 2-planks that are assembled in Step 1, do not tighten the screws and leave all the screws loose. The difficult step that was consistent with all 5 chairs that I assembled was the right armrest support plank as it does not line up with the pre-drilled screw holes. I had to use a large C-clamp to align the holes in place. If you don't have a clamp a second person WILL be needed. The 4 different screws that I mentioned earlier are used to secure the armrest boards to the rear of the chair frame. Tighten the 4 screws with the same pressure you used on the other screws. Once you tighten those 4 screws, finish tightening all the other screws and you're done. I hope this helps. The chairs are wonderful and comfortable. They'll last a long maintenance-free time!

lots of compliments

We had purchased four of these for ourselves and then our son liked them so much he asked if we would buy him 2 for Christmas. He was able to assemble them quickly and they look great in their front yard. The chairs are comfortable for people of all heights-from short to tall.
