3 Piece Patio Glider Set, 2 Gliding Chairs Rated 330 lb with 8 in Red Back Cushions and Powder Coated Slatted Coffee Table
Eight inches of back cushion is the number that sets this set apart, over a 4 in seat pad, both in red with zips on the covers. The chairs glide rather than rock, on a heavy duty steel frame rated 330 lb each, and the slatted coffee table is powder coated over an X braced structure.
Outdoor chairs that give your back nothing
A thin pad against a hard frame
Most outdoor seating puts a two or three inch cushion between your spine and a metal frame. It is fine for a coffee. An hour later you are sitting forward because the frame has found the small of your back through the pad.
Eight inches behind you
The back cushion here is 8 in thick, over a 4 in seat pad, both filled with soft elastic sponge and both on zipped covers. That is closer to an indoor armchair than to a patio chair, and it is the reason this set costs what it does.
Red on a black frame is a deliberate choice rather than a neutral one, and the cushions are the whole product.
Two gliders and a table
The cushions are the first thing you see: a thick red back and a thick seat in each chair, on curved steel gliding frames. The table between them has a slatted top on an X braced base.
The measurements
The record gives each glider chair as 27 in by 30 in by 32 in. The panel marks the back cushion at 8 in and the seat cushion at 4 in, and gives the coffee table beside them.
The cushions, measured
Four labels, two of them numbers: an 8 in back cushion and a 4 in seat cushion. Both carry zips so the covers come off, which is what makes a thick outdoor cushion worth owning.
What moves, and what does not
Curved armrests, screw pads under the feet, and the gliding device itself, which the maker says lets the chair glide safely without loud noises. The frame stays put while the seat travels.
What the three pieces give you
An 8 in back cushion
Thicker than most indoor sofa backs, over a 4 in seat pad, both filled with soft elastic sponge.
330 lb per chair
The record gives a heavy duty steel frame rated 330 lb for each glider chair.
A quiet gliding device
The maker calls it high grade and says it glides safely without loud noises. The frame stays still while the seat travels.
Zips on both cushions
Back and seat covers both unzip, so the fabric washes rather than being scrubbed in place.
Powder coated table
The record states a powder coated surface on the coffee table, with an X shaped structure under the slatted top.
Adjustable foot pads
Screw pads under the chairs so they stand level, which matters on a seat that moves.
Indoors as well
The maker photographs and describes the set for a living room as readily as a balcony or a poolside.

Who is this perfect for?
People who sit outside for hours
Eight inches of back cushion. This is the deepest padding in the range and the reason to choose it.
Patios with a wall behind
A glider does not travel backwards. The footprint stays the same whether the seat is moving or not.
Anyone who wants quiet
The maker's own claim for the gliding device is that it works without loud noises, which is not true of every metal glider.
What we stand behind
- The 8 in back cushion, the 4 in seat cushion and the 330 lb chair capacity are the manufacturer's published figures.
- The record calls this a glider chair set with a gliding device, while the listing title calls it a rocking chair set. Glider is what the record describes and what the panels show.
- No coffee table dimensions or capacity are published, so neither is stated.
- No UV rating, foam density or set weight is published, so none is quoted.
- Ships from our United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.
- 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a rocker or a glider?
A glider. The listing title says rocking chair set, but the record describes a gliding device and glider chairs, and the maker's own detail panel shows the mechanism. The seat travels forward and back while the frame stays where it is.
How thick are the cushions really?
Eight inches on the back and four on the seat, both labelled on the manufacturer's own cushion panel. That is unusually deep for outdoor seating and it is what you are paying for.
Do the covers come off?
Both of them. The maker calls out a zipper design on the back and the seat cushions. Wash the covers on their own, keep the sponge out of the machine, and dry them out of direct sun.
How much weight will a chair take?
Three hundred and thirty pounds per glider chair on a heavy duty steel frame, which is the record's own figure.
