Wulfern Piperi Poly Rocking Chairs, Set of 2

A matched pair of black rocking chairs moulded from solid HDPE poly lumber, rated to 350 pounds each and built to sit outside through rain, sun and frost.

This listing ships two matching rocking chairs, not one. Each chair is 35 inches across and 35 inches front to back over the runners, so measure for both before you decide where the pair goes.

• Slatted back and shaped seat

  Five vertical slats run up to an arched crest rail, and the seat is scooped rather than flat so you do not slide forward as the chair moves. The armrests are flat on top, wide enough to park a mug on.

• About 20 minutes to build

  Each chair arrives 80 percent assembled at 6 parts and 4 steps, about 20 minutes of work, and the legs are the pieces you bolt on. The hardware is in the carton, but a power drill is required and is not included, so have one ready before you start.

• How it sits

  Seat height is 19.2 inches off the ground, close to a dining chair, and the seat measures 20.2 inches wide by 20.4 inches deep. The back rises tall enough to rest your head against. No cushion ships with the chairs, so add your own if you want padding.

• Poly lumber, not painted wood

  The frame is HDPE poly lumber. The black runs all the way through the material rather than sitting on top as paint, and UV stabilisers hold it there, so the chairs will not fade, splinter, crack, peel or rot in rain and sun. The spec sheet lists them as rust resistant as well.

• Rated to 350 pounds

  Each chair carries a weight capacity of 350 pounds, so the pair supports two adults with no caveat about who sits where. The chairs themselves weigh 38 pounds each, light enough for one person to carry one out to the lawn and back again.

• Cleaning and winter storage

  Care is a spot clean with mild soap and a damp cloth. There is no sealing, oiling or repainting to keep up with. The chairs can stay out all year, though moving them under cover for the winter keeps the stainless screws from sitting wet season after season.

• What is in the carton

  Two rocking chairs arrive flat packed, with the fasteners for final assembly included. Not included: cushions, a side table, a cover, or the power drill the 4 assembly steps call for.

Good to know

• Tape two 35 by 35 inch rectangles. That is one chair each, not the pair.
• Seat height is 19.2 inches, about the same as a dining chair.
• Leave clear floor behind each chair so the runners can travel.
• Each chair weighs 38 pounds, so one person can carry one out.
