Cheap
You get what you pay for. Flimsy. Seat slays are too thin and break under the slightest stress.

    I ordered this porch swing based on the price and the picture shown on the internet. When I got the swing, I was a little disappointed that it was poorly made. They used staples on the swing and wood was thin. I'm afraid it will break to sit on. However, it looks good. I will add more wood to support on the bottom parts and use screws to make the swing stronger. I would not recommend this swing.

      Very flimsy, held together by staples. Had to buy fasteners to install because the staples kept pulling out. Easy to assemble. Looks great.

      The swing went together very easily. It is smaller than I expected, but is ok with 2 people. I would recommend painting the swing and not exposing it directly to the elements.

      Rec'd as scheduled, went together smoothly. We chose not to paint/finish the swing, may or may not be a good thing later, time will tell. Hung it on the stand and used it immediately!

      This bench came in a few days and was very easy to assemble! The wood was high quality and looks very durable. For the price it was a great deal and recommend anyone looking for a porch swing to get this one. Highly recommended!

      Overall the swing is good. Not great but good. Drawbacks are 1) the swing back doesn’t have much support and gives when an adult leans back against it. 2) the bottom seat is uncomfortable because the edge is too squared off.

      This is a nice swing for the price. It isn’t put together well and I say that because it is just stapled together except for the main brackets on it.

      Been using this 'style' of porch swing for years. Can't undrstand why some say this is 'cheaply made' !! Best porchswing pound per dollar on the market. Spray w a couple of cans of clear coat and I'll get ten or more years out of it.

      Very Cheaply Made
      I ordered this swing online and it came last week. I put it together today and could not beleive how poorly made it is. The slats are stapled on and not screwed. I am sure that after one season, this thing will completely fall apart. I am probably going to cut it up and use as firewood since I cannot return it at this point. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!!

        Seat area is not wide enough, another 12" would work and back should be higher and angled back more.

        I ordered two swings. They came in quickly and were exactly what I wanted. All hardware was included and the swings appeared to be well build.

        Looked great when I first bought it and assembled it. But after a week and a half, two normal weight people were sitting on it and it completely broke, the people sitting on it fell to the ground and hit their heads. It broke from leaning back on it. Would not advise buying for function. Only thing it’s good for is looks.
