    This is my Fathers Day present this year. It is made from Polywood which is made from recycled milk jugs. I got them at an Amish store and since they were 2012 models, got them for 30% off. Guaranteed for 20 years too!

    It is a glider and has a nice smooth motion!

    All of the screws and metal parts are stainless steel. They are well made but very expensive. The regular price for both pieces was right at $800. If I couldn't have gotten the 30% off, I wouldn't have gotten it. But setting on the deck in the shade with a cup of coffee watching the birds is really nice!
