Hi. After a search I  see that you will deliver to Portugal using algarve removals.

We are hoping to buy a garden bench and wondered how we find out the shipping cost please.

Q

How stable is this chair?

Jane 17 Feb 2018
1 answer

Good morning, If a person with very poor eyesight used the back of the chair as a support to maneuver round to the seat would it tip over? How long is the sale on for? Many thanks for your help. Best wishes,

A

Hi Jane!

I would say if they are just using the back of the chair as a guild that will be fine.

I have just tried putting my full body weight on the back of the chair (which is quite a lot!) and it seemed stable.

Of course, this is in the fully upright position, if reclined that is a no-no.

I would suggest when the chair arrives you give it a test with someone else around just in case.

Hope that helps!

All the best

Dave

Q

Do the chairs come fully assembled or is self assembly required?

1 answer
A

Hi Clare,

The chairs need a couple of cable ties cutting underneath them to release the mechanism.

Then the back of the chair needs lifting up, and slotting into 2 upright poles.

More a slot together than assembly, probably no more than 1 minute to do!

Can you please tell me the weight of the chairs in the Cozy Bay Panama Bistro set?  I am looking for something that is not too heavy to move around.

A

Hello Ralph,
Cozy Bay is made from strong, but lightweight aluminium, making it very easy to move around, and should be no problem for you.

Some questions:

1 answer

Does this come ready assembled ?

How many cushions ?
Does it have to be covered throughout the winter weather ?
Thanks

A

Hello Jane,
 
Everything is ready out of the box, no assembly required. The set comes with 2 cushions, one with each chair.
And no it does not need to be covered over winter, it's premium quality rattan, and so will not rust, or fade due no matter what the weather does to it!

Yes, you can buy additional chairs for this set. In this case additional chairs would be priced at £100 per chair. However, we do have the 6 seater Cozy Bay Hamptons dining set for just £899, which includes a bigger table.
