Thought this was neat. Bought 2. Looks solid and easy to maintain.

I am tempted. I like it more than the table and benches I already have.

They sell these every year. I think they are very clever, and I've been tempted to buy one (or two). I have limited deck space (condo), so I haven't done it, but with the addition of color choices, it's more tempting.....

In past years I always liked these too. I wish there was a monetary incentive to buy 2. Buy more and save, free shipping on the 2nd... something!

What is it?

I was out looking for the old time metal chairs Mon. Can't find. I saw one at a consignment type shop that was all rusty and scratched up I'd had to paint it for 55.00. Passed on that one.

then went to the hardware stores Ace, etc. they had a bench for 155

One place had a metal glider for 200.

Came home, disgusted.

Saw this on Q and here in Tx. you can't have nothing for the blowing dirt, high winds, etc. (we got those sunny skies,though LOL) I have enclosed patio and this is no maintenance at all and can hold my grilling junk.

No painting yr after yr like the wicker stuff I'm putting out on the curb today.

Sold me. Just saying.

Actually had a full cup of coffee already ......................brain cells are not operating.

Love this TSV. The winds here in Chicago would have me getting it out of the neighbor's yards on a regular basis so it's a pass for me.

yeah, if it's staying out in the weather. Weighs 38 pds they said each section, but, mine will be on my walk out patio enclosed on 3 sides and then I have tall vinyl fence on the open side.

Not even Tx winds should be able to get to it. LOL

Just practical for my needs. don't have to worry about getting the truck out and going to hunt for something,haul it home in the wind, etc.

Let UPS man bring it to my front door hahahahahahhaha

The previous resident of our campsite left 2 of these behind. They are fabulous - esp. when you get them for free! We usually keep ours as benches but once or twice we have converted them to a table. Our campground gives you a wooden picnic table so we don't have as much need for the table as we do the benches. Ours sit out all winter and in the spring DH takes them to the car wash and sprays them down - they come out nice and clean. I'm sure you could power wash them if you had a power washer.They stay clean all summer with just occasional spraying with the hose. for some reason they seem to attract the grass clippings so after DH cuts the grass they usually need hosed off.

I loved it, the bench to table conversion, but I'm getting one made for $80 of treated wood, material and labor plus delivery. I'm 3rd on the list, when I get mine, I'll post picture.

Ouch, don't want any splinters. Hate digging them things out of my fingers.

Re: TSV

lulu2 — Tue, 14 Mar 2017 16:01:29 GMT

I bought 2 (white) last (?) year and have been pleased with them. Our Grands enjoy them as single tables, but we've also used them as a picnic table. They are easy to clean.

Nomorebirthdays — Tue, 14 Mar 2017 16:41:06 GMT

I like them but I worry about the wind blowing them all over. Especially like the wood look.

I've never been tempted by these. (what's up with the picture in the first post?)

In a presentation a couple of years ago, the vendor sat on one and it tipped, with him almost falling on the floor. I'l admit he sat on the 'table' part but it made me realize they aren't really very heavy.

If they came up with one that was more ornate and fancy with some scroll work or something, I might consider one, but they are kind of plain for my taste.

Re: TSV

SharkE — Tue, 14 Mar 2017 16:27:00 GMT

I like decorative posts LOL

Fancy stationary.

Re: TSV

DiAnne — Tue, 14 Mar 2017 17:47:04 GMT

I would consider this if they were in colors. Red, yellow, blue, etc. I have seen Adirondack chairs all over in bright colors that are made out of plastic.

Oh goodness @Mominohio I am so glad you asked because I thought it may be an outdoor area rug and since I am moving to a place with a balcony I thought it would be so pretty . . .

I thought the OP was saying that flower thing in the first post was the TSV. I thought it was a rug. LOL

ROFL No, although, I have seen some like that in catalogs I get in mail.

Thank you all for noticing.
