For anyone who cherishes outdoor living, the right furniture can transform a simple patio or porch into a personal haven. Since 2014, I’ve had the pleasure of owning two Polywood Presidential Rocking Chairs, and to this day, they remain as impressive as the day they arrived. As someone who relishes the outdoors, the moment the weather warms up, I eagerly bring out my outdoor furniture to fully embrace the season. Among my cherished outdoor pieces, the Polywood Rocking Chairs hold a special place, offering a simple yet profound pleasure.
There’s something incredibly soothing about sitting in an outdoor rocking chair, gently swaying while enjoying a sunny afternoon or a starlit evening. Whether I’m engrossed in a captivating book, engaged in conversation, or simply lost in my thoughts, my polywood rocking chair is my preferred spot. These rocking chairs and the accompanying side table boast the aesthetic and heft of traditional wood furniture, yet they are crafted from an unexpected source: recycled milk jugs. Yes, you read that correctly – these beautiful, durable pieces are made from recycled milk jugs!
In a unique celebration of Earth Day, POLYWOOD, a company renowned for its commitment to sustainability and quality, partnered with bloggers to review their outdoor furniture. I was fortunate to be among these reviewers and have been thoroughly impressed with my Polywood Presidential Rockers ever since they were delivered.
POLYWOOD’s commitment to the environment is evident in their manufacturing process. Their furniture is constructed from approximately 90% recycled plastic, primarily sourced from milk jugs and detergent bottles. This eco-conscious approach, combined with the desire for furniture that is virtually maintenance-free and built to last, is the foundation of POLYWOOD® Outdoor Furniture.
One of the most significant advantages of POLYWOOD® HDPE lumber is its resilience to the elements. It remains unaffected by sun, rain, snow, sleet, wind, saltwater, chlorine, and mildew. This durability is a major selling point for me. While I enjoy DIY projects, especially painting, the idea of owning outdoor furniture that doesn’t require constant upkeep is incredibly appealing.
The robust construction of polywood rocking chairs ensures they remain stable on your patio, even during strong weather conditions. POLYWOOD HDPE poly lumber is non-porous, allowing the furniture to be left outdoors year-round, regardless of the climate. Maintaining these rocking chairs is remarkably simple; soap and water are all you need to keep them clean and ready for use for years to come.
My Polywood set arrived directly at my doorstep, neatly packaged in large boxes. Assembly was surprisingly straightforward. I managed to assemble the entire set in under 45 minutes, using just the handy screwdriver included with each piece, right in my studio office.
The hardware included with Polywood furniture is marine-grade, ensuring it can withstand harsh outdoor elements without rusting or deteriorating.
Polywood furniture is available in a wide array of 14 attractive colors. I opted for classic black with Sunbrella fabric cushions in Sesame, chosen to complement my existing outdoor dining set. Previously, I had a porch swing in the arbor area where I placed the rocking chairs. However, I find the rocking chairs to be a much better choice due to their portability. Unlike the fixed swing, these chairs can be easily moved to suit any arrangement.
Whether I’m hosting guests and want the seating to face the dining area or house, or simply want to reorient my view of the yard, these rocking chairs offer unmatched flexibility. The furniture is not only robust and well-designed but also exceptionally comfortable. I am thoroughly pleased with my Polywood rockers and side table and have since expanded my collection with a POLYWOOD tall table and chair set for my new home, further testament to my satisfaction with the brand.
In conclusion, Polywood Presidential Rocking Chairs are a fantastic investment for anyone seeking durable, stylish, and eco-friendly outdoor furniture. Their low-maintenance nature, coupled with their long-lasting construction and comfortable design, makes them a standout choice for enhancing any outdoor space. If you value quality outdoor relaxation, consider adding a polywood rocking chair to your patio or porch.
