I own a Modway outdoor dining set in this chair’s design and that dining set has never rusted and is holding up in California weather, so it was only natural to find matching lounge chairs for the pool. We ordered 2 of these chairs and they arrived on time. One of the boxes came damaged, but the chair was protected pretty well and no damage to the product. It only took 10 mins to assemble each chair - the frame and 2 sets of legs to screw onto each other. It’s been 4 months and the chair looks like it’ll hold up for a few years and I haven’t seen any rusting on our pool deck. The mesh seating is pretty stiff but slightly flexible when you sit on it. If you like really soft and cushy seats, then order an extra lounge pillow to lay on top. I love Modway products. They’re a bit pricey but worth it.
