Bates 2-Piece Retro Metal Outdoor Patio Chair Set

I call them Cracker Chairs because they remind me of saltines. Look great outside my front door on the covered porch. Comfortable. Difficult, stressful assembly.

Beautiful color. Packaged very well. Easy to put together. Very sturdy chair.

This company makes things that last. Replaced our older model Crosley chairs that only lasted 40 years. Assembly was easy enough with good hardware included. A couple of 36 inch bar clamps make assembly a breeze.

Sturdy comfortable chairs that won’t sink into the lawn because of the way the legs are designed. I love the RED RED color. Bright and shiny. Got the multi colored seat cushions and they look really nice out in my garden with all the brightly colored flowers. Easy to assemble (had my husband do it) all the pieces were there in a plastic covered card. They remind me of the chairs my grandparents had at their resort.

You will need 2 people to put these together. Somewhat difficult to get squared up and straight. They are very sturdy and the paint is very good. These are not as comfortable as the ones on my grandparents porch 50 years ago. They are very stiff and smaller than those old antique ones. They look great and should last a long time. Even though they are less than perfect they are good for the price point.

Love these chairs. Bring back so many memories. I noticed all the discussions about the difficulty in assembling these chairs but I’m a 78 year old female and had no trouble with these or the Crosley glider. I do admit the glider instructions were confusing.

This is a beautiful, very sturdy, well made chair. I strongly recommend that you have someone help you to assemble because it is nearly impossible to do alone. It took me 2 hours to assemble one, and the gymnastics required was exhausting. I’m not sure I have the mental and physical energy to put together the second chair, at least not today.

Love these. Heavy metal chairs. Not cheap like some.
