Ocean Chair Makes Waves

"Love the two chairs I purchased. My goal was to make my outdoor space a reflection of the beach here in Surf City. All the Polywood furniture we got was a great addition to our new resort style backyard patio."

For the first time I

"For the first time I had a slight problem. When I went to move the unit during assembly the arm rest handle pulled loose. Screws going into that armrest seemed inadequate so I replaced with longer screws. Red rolled new holes. Now much more secure!"

Q&A

Can you get the ocean chair as a swivel chair?
Hello Sandra, I apologize, the Ocean Chair is not currently available in a swivel version. I will pass that suggestion on to our design teams for consideration though! Please sign up for the newsletter, as that would be the best place to see any possible new items. Thanks, Mindy
Can you please tell me the height of the back....from where it sits on the seat to its highest point? Being tall, I want to make sure that I can rest my head on the back. Thank you.
Hello Libbey, The height of the back is 28.632 inches. Please see the highlighted drawing below. ![](https://polywoodinc.zendesk.com/attachments/token/AWUejPqxwWTa7948KyOjDVrd3/?name=image.png) Thanks, Mindy
Why does this model have 2 bolts per front leg versus other non folding models that have 3 bolts per front leg?
Hello Sean, That is a great question. With our Ocean chair, the front apron is larger and allows us to space the leg-to-seat connections further apart, which better disperses the weight strain on the hardware. I hope this information helps. Thanks -Jason
why when i attempt to order the ocean chair in blue like it it shown, i am not goven that optionl. it wants me to sellect one of the 3 basic colors? Secondly, when i attempt to order the nautical chairs, I am given no information about what ottoman would best fit this chair? Do it like ebay and for every purchase in your basket, you should be showing customers what other customers bought with it. for example chair,... you may like this.... ottoman, pillows cushions etc. it will increase your sales, reduce custoer frustrations. No need to thank me, just send me a check along with my order lol. Ray N
Hello Ray! Thank you so much for this great suggestion! The Ocean Chair is available in 14 Traditional colors as well as 3 Vintage colors. You had been reviewing the page for the Vintage line. Here is the link to the Traditional finish Ocean Chair https://www.polywood.com/the-ocean-chair-oca24.html We have recently introduced " perfect pairings" for each Adirondack chair. If there is a recommended ottoman or cushion, it will be added in this perfect pairings box when viewing the item. I hope this information if helpful! Thanks again! Jillian
Do these chairs have an adjustable reclinement? If not, is this something you'd consider for the future?
Hello Sue! Thank you so much for reaching out to us with your inquiry! The Ocean chairs do not have a reclining options. As of right now, this is not something that is in the plans for the near future. This was a really great questions!! Jillian
Is there any way to "personalize" the chair and add a person's name to the chair?
Hi Keith, That's a very good question! We don't offer any sort of personalization at our facility, but you could add a plaque or nameplate to the chair once you receive it. Doing so would not void your warranty. Thanks so much for asking! Candace
Can these chairs be used in the pool on a Baja deck?
Hi Julie Thank you for your question We do not recommend prolonged use in pools or being left in water. It should be hosed off after use in these types of conditions as pool chemicals and or salt water can adversely affect the hardware and the color pigments in the lumber. Best Regards JR
The details list the seat height as 14.25". Is this at the front, back or in the middle? I am mostly interested in the seat height at the front of the chair.
Hello Bonnie, that is an excellent question. For the seat height measurement, it is taken from the highest point on the seat. For this chair that would be taken from the front. Thank you for your question and I hope this response is helpful. Best wishes, Collin.
What are the dimensions of the chair? Height, Width (total and internal seat width), seat depth?
Hi Carlos, Great questions! The height of this Adirondack is 35.63", the width from the outside of one arm to the other is 30.16", the seat width is 20.5", and the seat depth is 16.75". If you want to see more specs you can scroll down to the Product Details section on the product page. There we've provided a diagram and listed measurements for this chair. Thanks and have a great day! Cait
Hi...I'm interested in the wave chair, does it come already assembled?
Hello! Assembly is required. There are instructions on the website and you are attaching the arms, legs and back. There are 5 steps to the assembly instructions. Thanks for asking! Karen
I have large people in my family. What is the weight capacity of the wave chair?
Hi Emily, Good question! Each POLYWOOD product is run through a variety of tests to comply with ASTM standards. All of our chairs are weight tested up to 400 lbs, although many products can withstand much more. Thanks for asking! Kaylan

What ottoman pairs best with the ocean chair?
Hi there, We recommend pairing The Ocean Chair with the Classic Adirondack Folding Ottoman. Thanks for asking! Kaylan
what is the hardware made from? Description says "marine quality." Does this mean stainless steel?
Hi Tom Yes, our hardware is stainless steel. Thanks for the great question! Karen
Can you stack these chairs for storage?
The WAVE collection of chairs is not stackable. Thank you for a great question! Karen
I am wanting to order 2 of the wave chairs in grey, but concerned about delivery time with the COVID-19 going on. Is it affecting your production and delivery time?
Hello Karen, Thanks for your question! We are still able to fulfil orders for the Ocean Chair at this time. COVID-19 has affected our operations, including lead times, but thankfully we are still up and running! Here is a link to the COVID-19 statement on our website for more information on our status at this time: https://www.polywood.com/covid We appreciate you reaching out! Oli
I have concerns of the comfort level of this chair because It appears the actual seat is short in length due to only 3 boards. Is this the case? From the pictures the seat seems to be a lot shorter in length then all other Polyood chairs?
Hi Anthony, The Ocean Chair should be very similar in comfort to our other Adirondack chairs. With a seat depth of only 1/4-1" shorter than most other adirondacks, the design style can look deceiving. The lumber slats used in the seat assembly are wider than most of our other chairs too! We appreciate you reaching out with this query! Oli
Does the ocean chair fold flat?
Hello! Thank you for your interest in the Ocean Chair! Unfortunately, the Ocean Chair is not currently available in a foldable version. However, as this is a new product, it may be something that we offer in the future! Our POLYWOOD chairs that do fold, do indeed fold flat. Here is a link to our foldable Adirondack chairs: https://www.polywood.com/styles/adirondack-chairs/folding.html We appreciate your question! Oli
