We've purchased two of the Christopher Knight swinging chairs. They arrived quickly and were packed well. Assembly was very easy. One chair was kept indoors (great for TV watching, a lot of fun to use). The other one was kept on the covered patio. So it got some moisture exposure from the air but not from rain directly. Sadly, the outdoor chair started showing signs of rust within a few weeks of purchase. We still use it but it could look better. It is still on a covered patio out of the direct way of elements. The indoor chair looks brand new even after a year and a half of use and is used daily.
