Made in USA - a disappointment in this case
I was thrilled to get a glider for my covered front porch.
I am careful to buy American-made and it usually rewards me with long-lasting & well made products.
In this case, the glider began to creak and groan in less than a month.
My husband checked it out and pronounced that the joints were poorly designed and badly connected - many only used glue.
He drilled some additional holes in the seat and base, added stainless screws & bolts, and placed cedar buttons over them.
This was a LOT of work and cost extra money.
In retrospect - I should have looked at the construction closely - and then I would have bought another brand.
I may still do so.
Lesson learned.
