Hatteras Hammocks S-19CM40
This Hatteras Hammock makes a great Fall gift. A dream comes ture for you as you find yourself setting under a porch watching the leafs fall off the trees is a picture coming true as you set in the hammock.

Great for 5'6" or Less
I love this swing, my husband hates it. I am 5' 5" tall and he is 5' 9". For some reason, he is unable to find a comfortable position when he uses the swing. I am perfectly happy. For him, the lack of back support is bothersome (it leans too far back). We also received one that leans slightly, but were able to correct this. Overall, I do recommend this swing as it is great looking and has high quality fittings. I do not recommend this swing's stand (purchased separately) as it feels flimsy and rocks a great deal.

Sturdy product with tasteful design
Although titled a "swing", a more accurate description of this product is "hammock chair". This product and the supplemental frame are not designed for swinging, but lounging like in a regular hammock.

Other than the misnomer, this product is very well made and tasteful. I highly recommend it as an addition to anyone's backyard or patio, especially those who like to lounge and read outside. ... Read more

The unusual design of this American Woods outdoor chair givesyou all the comfort of a chaise longue with the soothing motion of arocker. Stoutly constructed, the V-shaped supports let you trail a footover the side to set yourself gliding back and forth. The chair iscrafted from high-quality Western red cedar with three angles ofrecline for the seatback. The highest is a great reading angle, themiddle is ideal for basking, and the last is nearly horizontal (thoughthe chair doesn't glide when fully reclined). Slightly contoured to fityour body, the seatback and leg support allow plenty of room forstretching out, and the armrests are comfortable. With slightly darkerpieces of cedar at its edges, the chaise has an attractively solidsilhouette. Though it doesn't collapse for storage like metal orplastic models, the chair does come with a clear oil-based coat toresist aging and the elements. Assembly on this piece is reasonablyeasy and took us under an hour. --Emily Bedard ... Read more

Good value for the money
We shopped this in many places and no one came close to this value. However, be prepared to have patience putting it together. It would help to have someone assisting. We ordered two and one box contained a damaged part. We called the manufacturer's 800 number directly and they said they would ship the part to us the next day, no questions asked or proof required. The only frustration we faced was not being able to get other pieces matching due to the fact that they are out of stock. You won't be disappointed with this purchase.

Beautiful chair!

Hatteras quality is unmatchable.
Hatteras Hammocks quality is unsurpassed. Because this item is linen and not plastic, you won't be sweating while you're in this chair. Holding up to 350Lbs, you and yours can snuggle, if you can fit. I swing in my hammock with my child and it's most comforting for both of us. Don't forget to take it in when it's raining. The sun can damage it too. If you take care of it, it will take care of you! Buy it. ... Read more

Definitely worth the money
I purchased this item during the 50% off clearance sale... For that price, the glider is unbeatable... I did have to reread the instructions a couple of times, but they were clearer than anything I've gotten from IKEA.
Why four stars then? Although all the hardware components were there(a first in my home-assembly furniture experience), I was missing a couple of key pilot holes. The final baseplate sitting on the underside of the seat and the seatback did not have pilot holes to guide me. Typically this isn't an issue, but the pilot holes would have helped me be sure I was putting the baseplate in the correct spot. Also, I had to redrill some of the bolt holes. They just weren't deep enough. Again, it's only a pain when you've already screwed the 4 inch bolt into place and it's 1/4" short of flush.
Remember, this is a cedar bench. It's not teak; it's not mahogany. It's not intended to stand up to heavy duty use. Sit on it carefully. Do not flop down on it, do not let your kids roughhouse on it, and it should do fine.

American Woods Windsor Collectin Loveseat Glider
Having read other reviews of this glider before I ordered, I felt I was somewhat prepared for what I got. This was not meant to be a piece of fine furniture. The cedar was rough in many places and obviously pieced together from ends and scraps. Instructions say you should plan on sealing your glider within the first year of use. I anticipated that the manufacturer's oil sealer would not be the quality I wanted, so I sanded every part, then applied 3 coats of my own sealer before I ever assembled the glider. I believe I increased both the value and the life-span this way. It went together fairly easily; having a cordless drill helped immeasurably. I am now making cushions for the back, as it is slightly uncomfortable without some kind of padding. Really, I love it now, but it took some work to get it to that point. By the way, I got a much better price than is being offered now. I suggest holding out til spring.

outdoor lover
Not a bad little glider for the price. It was a little smaller than I had invisioned, but it will work. It was easy to put toether acording to my Husband but He did have to do a little alteration as one part didn't line up. He also added that the wood that was pieced together was done so in the correct way and it would add to the durability. I guess the bottom line is you get what you pay for and in this case , and in this day and age it was worth the money.

ours is holding up well...
I agree with many of the reviewers who noted that the assembly instructions for this glider could use improvement (though I was able to put it together by myself in about an hour with little difficulty) and the overall quality of the wood is only average. But, that said, ours has held up to two years of steady use on a covered porch with no noticeable problems. The glider mechanism is still very smooth, and the wood is not showing any stress or strain. Bottom line, if you want a perfect, solid wood glider you should expect to pay quite a bit more. But for the price, this is a perfectly fine bench.

Its pretty, but that's all its got going for it
We loved the look of this bench and put it on our Amazon wedding registry. When we received it as a gift, we were annoyed that one of the arm units was split at the grain. The company quickly sent us a new one and it then took 2 people several hours to assemble. We put it on our screened-in porch and enjoyed it for a month or so, and then the cracking began. We discovered quickly that the seat slats were made from several pieces of wood fused together and then veneered, thus the source of the creeking and cracking. Shortly after that the back slats all detached from the seat, which made it easy to see that they were put together with glue and a few staples. This beautiful gliding loveseat, assembled in April, is now sitting in our basement in August, waiting to be repaired or thrown out. A huge waste of money that could of been used for a solid wood seat that would last more than a few months. ... Read more

Very comfy single seating swing
I thought I'd get this in place of a porch swing, and I love it, but it's NOT a two person swing. It's very comfortable, very nice looking, and super-sized for one person, but two people in it would be extremely cozy (too cozy). Overall, I recommend it if you don't need swing for more than one.

Comfy but not so big
This porch swing is pretty darn comfortable. It's also attractive. The only problem is the following: it's not really a two person swing. On the other hand, it's not really a one person swing. Instead, it's somewhere in between. Two people can fit on the swing, but would fill it up. One person has lots of room, but can't really lie down for a nap (although a nap sitting up is a definite possibility and, given how comfortable it is, is certainly a viable option.) I don't want to suggest that two people cannot fit on the swing, but don't expect to have lots of room to spread out when two people want to sit on it. That having been said, it's much more comfortable than most wooden swings and is pretty easy to put together.

Hatteras Hammocks C-CM40 Double Cushioned Linen Swing
I purchased this swing in early June so that I'd have some nice outdoor seating for family visitors I was expecting at the end of the month. The swing arrived in a timely manner, but when I got the parts out and started to put is together, I discovered that the top bar was the wrong part. That's when the trouble started. I had trouble contacting Hatteras Hammocks Customer Service, (it took them a couple of day to respond by e-mail, and their 800 phone number was not functioning properly), but once I did get a service rep, a replacement part was sent out (it took about a week to arrive). Unfortunately, my visitors had come and gone by that point. However, with the correct part, assembly was fairly easy and fast, and the swing is *very* comfortable as well as attractive. So overall, I would recommend this swing (hopefully the parts error was an isolated incident). ... Read more

Very comfortable
I purchased this based on previous positive reviews. This swing has a sturdy frame, and the cushion is soft and comfortable. All pieces are high quality - including the hanging chains.
This product beats any wooden bench-type porch swings. This is the premium seat on our front porch.
Highly recommended.

Deliciously comfortable!
About to purchase my third swing. Can not be surpassed for comfort. Lasts just about two years in full time direct So. Florida wicked sun. Recommend routinely treating the fabric with weather repellent, and the wood with water seal too. Very easy assembly. The stand has outlasted two of the swings--excellent construction.

Great Product
Very comfortable and attractive. Extremely easy to assemble - very few parts. Our favorite outdoor seat.

Sturdy and Comfortable
This is absolutely the most comfortable swing in the world. It was simple to assemble and my wife and I used it last night for the first time, within minutes of hanging it. Wow, we could have fallen asleep in it. We highly recommended it, although it would have been even better if it was just a little wider. Two people can fit on it comfortably, but we expected it to be a little bigger. It is really just right though, comfortable, sturdy and beautiful to look at. ... Read more

Money better spent elsewhere
I bought this swing at the end of last season at a highly reduced price. I thought for the money, the quality was OK. Or so I thought.

Unfortunately, I waited until the following summer to assemble it. I was doing well following each step of the directions until I got to a certain point where the sub-assembled pieces wouldn't fit together and when trying, one of the pieces of wood split. It seems it came with some of the holes missed drilled which would not allow it to fit together.

The more time I spent trying to figure out the problem and consulting with other people, the more frustrated I became and the more I disliked the product quality and appearance.

Since I had waited too long to put it together, I couldn't return it. The manufacturer would replace the broken piece and the pieces that were defected if I could tell which ones were defected. I really couldn't. I would have had to have the whole frame shipped out. And, with the passage of time, the swing started to look ugly.

So, I have given up. What I have assembled will be taken apart this weekend. I will chalk it up to "you get what you pay for". At this point, I wouldn't have it in my backyard if I were given it for free!

A great wedding gift!
I purchased one for myself and one for a wedding gift. I just finished assembling mine... a couple of hours alone. It's quite easy to assemble. I was missing only one washer which will be a few cents to replace. I believe that it was an extreme bargain for the amount I paid on a Friday Sale Day Special. I absolutely adore the bench and I envision many intimate conversations in the garden. Let's hope that the newlyweds enjoys theirs as much!

Sweet, smooth silence
This swing was a belated Mother's day gift to my mother. I passed on other models in stores because they were too big for the space it would occupy in my garden or too squeaky when in use. I decided to take a chance on this one and am glad I did. The swing set was delivered within a week and I assembled within three hours with only the help of my cats (would've been quicker if I didn't suffer a momentary brain-freeze while attaching the arms to the seat.) It operates smoothly and silently with no hitches. The wood is a lovely honey color though a bit tacky from whatever it's been treated with. The reason the swing doesn't rate a "5" in my estimation is because a few pieces of the wood were dented in transit. Also, I found the canopy material somewhat flimsy and the directions for constructing the canopy not entirely clear. These complaints are small relative to the great pleasure that the swing provides to my mother and to me. ... Read more
