Comment on New Case of Green Zero Gravity Chairs Recliner Lounge Patio Chairs Folding by Mary E. Huffman

I studied so many chairs and chose to take a chance with these because the price was so excellent, and the color was fine. When the box came I could see the packaging was terrible. The box was wrinkled and had even been punctured. But the chairs turned out to be fine. I’ve just used mine a few times, so I don’t know how they’ll hold up over time. I always bring them inside at the end of the day, and they fold up easily. When you want to recline, just place both feet on the bottom front bar and push it away from you as you lean back. The pillow is very adjustable and fastens in the back with velcro. They are so relaxing to sit back in!

I took a chance ordering several of these small booklets and I’m glad I did. The information I got from them was well worth the price. They are simple, aren’t fancy at all, but contain helpful gardening information. I recommend them.

Unless you have acres and a horse to plow them (the method described frequently for soil prep) then this book is not at all helpful.

Comment on 2×4basics Flip Top BenchTable, Picnic Table and Bench, Sand by D. Lyons

This bench just what we needed on our pool deck – extra seating, plus a convertible extra table when we have guests over and eat out on the deck. I like the way we don’t have to turn the bench around to use the table, like some other convertible table/benches. This bench always amazes our guests, a few want to get one for themselves. The only drawback is that the bench is VERY heavy, so I wouldn’t recommend it if you plot to go it around a lot. The weight also made it a bit awkward to assemble, but it is well worth it. We bought two, and like them!

Made mine 8 feet long but the next time, will reduce the span by half.

Sister dumped a nice roast beef dinner on the ground because the back wasn’t locked but the pugs sure loved it!

Am making one for my son’s tiny back yard (really a small concrete slab). More useful and durable than any flimsy bistro set I could buy.

I bought two of these, sand color, and they are fantastic. It took me about 2 hours for each bench, most of the time for measuring and cutting the wood. I tend to work slowly, so I don’t make mistakes.

I made 5 foot benches, and they are very solid and stable. One drawback is the 2×4’s make them heavy to go around, but you can’t have everything. The benches are really pretty comfortable too; the back is at a excellent angle and isn’t too small. The option to convert to a table is an added bonus, for extra seating at parties.

I like this item for our cabin up north. Painting it took the longest, but the assembly was very simple. Works fantastic on our pier to hold my husbands tackle box and as a nice bench to sit on. We buy 2 more for our small deck. I highly recommend this item.
