Reviews

Love the look and durability. Assembly took a few extra steps

"During assembly I discovered that the small wings pre-attached to the uprights were reversed. I had to switch them (so that the LH, RH marking would be hidden). This required me to shave out some material around one screw so that it could come free. Hopefully Polywood can fix this error in the packing process."

Martha O. (4/5)

So relaxing.

"I added the rocker to an order on a whim and I’m so glad I did. I’d forgotten how relaxing a rocker on the deck can be"

Melissa C. (5/5)

Poor Quality

"The rocking chairs were difficult to put together, because the hardware was such poor quality. None of the pilot holes lined up or were of adequate size. Every single screw became stripped during installation. For the price of these chairs, Polywood should do much better. Profit over quality for sure."

Julie F. (1/5)

These are great rockets! Very

"These are great rockets! Very easy to assemble. As with all Polyeood furniture I’ve ordered, it’s well worth the price."

"We purchased the amazing sunset red! They match our red front door perfectly! We love rocking on the front porch in our new chairs."

Susan S. (5/5)

We got the order and

"We got the order and one chair was missing all hardware. . we ordered it about 2 weeks ago and still not received. . this was ordered as a gift for our son and he did the request."

Jennifer H. (1/5)

Assembly and look are great!

"Assembly and look are great! Unfortunately, they weren’t comfortable to sit in or rock. I love a good rocking chair, but without head support, this one is actually not easy to rock or comfortable. I opted for the modern Adirondack chair from Polywood and they are fantastic!"

Q&A

What is the difference in the Grant Park vs Modern Adirondack. They look exactly alike.
Hi Tom! Thank you for your question. There are slight design differences in the seat assembly between the Grant Park and Modern Adirondack, as well as small dimension differences. You can find all the details on the product pages under the Dimensions & Assembly tab. If you have any more questions, our customer service team would be more than happy to help you. Thank you, Amber
Is there an ottoman that would fit the height and match this chair?
Hi Ts, Thank you for your question! We don't have recommended ottomans for our rocking chairs. When considering the fit and the aesthetic of the Modern Adirondack Rocking chair, the OT53 Classic Adirondack Ottoman and the OT400 Vineyard Ottoman are around 14" high by 20" wide would fit the height of the Modern Adirondack Rocking chair. Thanks, Lana
I purchased 4Modern Adirondack Rocking Chairs and 4 Seat Cushions in Gray Mist. I was hoping to get 4 "back cushions". I do not see any on your site. Do you make a back cushion? Thanks
Hi Marianne, great question! We don't have back cushions for our Adirondack chairs, but we do offer a Lumbar pillow for additional comfort. You can find the Lumbar Pillow here. Happy shopping! Lana
Loving your product...will you be having any sales coming up? I am looking to order 8 chairs and cushions but hoping I can get a little discount?? Thank you

Is it possible to let me know the angle of the back for the Modern Adirondack Rocking Chair?
Hi Sara, Thank you for your question! The seat angle for the Modern Curveback Adirondack chair is 107 degrees. Thanks! Lana
If the chair has defective parts, does Polywood provide a full replacement or do you require the customer to disassemble the chair to remove and replace the faulty parts?
Hi Mike Thank you for your inquiry. In most cases, POLYWOOD will replace the defective part or assembly, such as a full back assembly. If a chair cannot be fixed with a replacement component, we can offer a full replacement. In such cases, we will require the defective furniture to be returned to POLYWOOD using a call tag. If you have any further questions or need assistance with this process, please let us know. We are here to help! Thanks, Lana
Is there any way you can make the modern rocker in Carolina Blue? Please.
Hello Sandy, I apologize, we cannot make custom colors. The only colors that will be available for purchase are what is shown on the product page. Thanks for asking, Mindy
This may be an obvious question, but does the black chair color get too hot to sit in when in direct sun?
Hi Bryan, That is an excellent question! Black does absorb more heat than the lighter colors. Our products are designed to disperse heat throughout the lumber, even if set out in direct sunlight. It may still be warm to the touch but should be comfortable enough to still use in the heat of day. I hope this helped answer your question. Thank you, Michelle
The back height seems lower on this then other chairs. I am only 5’3 and use to being able to lay my head back with room still left up top. With this chair the back stops at my neck. Are there other options or is this just the normal rocker height for your product?
Hello Stephanie, We have many different Adirondack Rocking chairs, and the dimensions are different for them all. You can use the compare feature to see the differences in them. If you like taller ones, I can suggest the Palm Coast Adirondack Rocking Chair which has a height of 37.75" or the Grant Park Traditional Curveback Adirondack Rocking Chair which has a height of 37.61". I hope this helps, Mindy
At 17.37" seat detph it seems like a short seat and not deep enough. Is that accureate?
Hello mkp278, Thank you for reaching out to us about our Adirondack chairs. I just want to confirm if you are looking at the Modern Adirondack chair or the Modern Adirondack Rocking Chair. The Modern Adirondack chair's seat depth is 17.37 whereas the rocking chair is 17.7 inches deep. I know it is not much of a difference but wanted to make sure we were looking at the right product. In terms of our Adirondack chairs that is about average for seat depth of all of the styles we offer. Thanks -Jason
Are these rockers comfortable for a summer afternoon?
To B.K. Our Modern Adirondack Rocking Chair is incredibly comfortable for use during the summer evenings! You are welcome to use with or without a cushion, can cover it with a blanket when not in use, and even rest on the porch with one of these any time. Best wishes, Jay C.
Im only 4’11” so would I be comfortable in this chair?
Hello Bonnie, The seat height of this chair is 15". I guess it would depend on how long your legs are, and if you mind your feet possibly not being on the ground flat. You can go to the Showroom locator on the website and put in your zip code. This will tell you where there are showrooms in your area, so that you can possibly sit in one in person. I would suggest calling places first, so that you can see if they have what you are looking for before you travel. I hope this helps, Mindy
Hello. I am wondering what the order time is for the modern Adirondack rocker in black? Thank you
Hello WS, I apologize, but I am unable to quote an order time, as thy do change with the seasons and as more or less people are ordering. For each item or set on the website, once you make your color selection, it will give the current estimated lead time. It will also state the estimated lead time in your cart, once you have added all items. Thanks, Mindy
I already have two stationary chairs. Looks to add rocking chairs. Do the rocking chairs come in the modern curved back style? Wanting to match. Thanks
Hello Megan, Thank you for reaching out. We have two Modern Adirondack rocker styles the Modern Adirondack Rocking Chair that has the flat back and rounded front and then our Modern Adirondack Rocker that has a curved back and a flat front, these would be the 2 closest matches to the Modern Curveback Adirondack. Best wishes, Heather
Is it really a 3 month lead time on a rocker?
Hello Mitch! Thank you so much for reaching out to us! At this time, we do have a 14-16 week leads time for a majority of our items. There recently has been a major influx of orders which has caused our production schedules to be booked out for 14-16 weeks. Thanks again! Jillian
Is there a side table that is round that would coordinate well with the Modern Adirondack Rocking Chair? I would like to know how wood slat thickness & spacing would compare.
Hi there! We don't have any round side tables in our Modern Collection, but we have a variety of round tables to choose from in our other collections. If you visit https://www.polywood.com/styles/tables-and-accessories/side-tables.html you can see all of our round tables and pick one that best fits your needs. Thanks! Cait
Is there a TREX composite wood product that matches or closely resembles your "Slate Grey" color? What is the name of the color in the TREX product line?
Slate Grey in the Polywood line is the same as the color Stepping Stone in the Trex line. Please note there is no wood in the furniture. It is all made from recycled milk jugs. Thanks for asking! Karen
Is this made in USA?
Hi there!Yes! All POLYWOOD furniture is made in the USA. Thanks and have a great day! Cait
What is the weight limit?
Hello! Thanks for getting in touch! Our POLYWOOD chairs are weight tested to ASTM regulation standards. This particular Modern Adirondack Rocking Chair has not currently been tested yet, but similar rocking chairs have been weight tested up to 400lbs. Great question! Oli
This feels like a low sit - if 15" from the ground for the seat height, what is it from the ground at the lowest point? Is it hard to get in and out of?
Hi Danielle! Thanks so much for reaching out to us! The height of the Modern Adirondack Rocking Chair is around 35''. The height from the seat to the floor is 15''. The Modern Adirondack Rocking Chair is a very comfortable chair and it is easy to get in and out of. Thanks again for the great question! Stephanie
