For those who do not like struggling out of standard Adirondack chairs, these are a great alternative. They sit high like regular chairs, are lightweight, and the cedar smells wonderful. They are sturdy and well-made, very easy to assemble, and the instructions are well-written. They are narrower than regular Adirondack chairs, so elbows fit best resting on the arms. We ordered two and plan on ordering two more for our deck. We've had lots of compliments on them.
