GRAND PATIO Outdoor Porch Swing 3-Seat with Canopy and Removable Cushion for Garden, Backyard, Poolside

I ordered this canopy swing on July 30th. I received it the next day. Due to the box being damaged, we were missing one piece. I contacted Grand Patio, and they took care of the problem. I Love my swing!!

Happy! Honestly, the swing exceeded my expectations. I assembled this by myself- it recommends 2 people. Follow instructions, no shortcuts.

I LOVE. LOVE, LOVE my new swing. Set up took two of us just over two hours. All the parts were included. We inventoried and organized everything before starting and it went very smoothly. The swing is sturdy and well built. We even recruited a little helper as you can see in the picture. He was not the second person mentioned above. He was an extra. This swing looks so beautiful on my back patio and there is nothing better than sitting out on a swing on a summer evening after a hard day with a tall glass of iced tea. So happy with this purchase! I can’t speak to longevity. We just put it together yesterday. Shipping from this buyer was quick. One internal parts box was ripped open, but all the parts were accounted for. It looked intentional, but not sure about the reason for it. I would order from this seller again.

Decision:

Replaced rusted and falling apart tripod patio swing. Like the square design with 4 sturdy legs. Like the gray/brown frame color. Like the heavy weight, as it does not seem to blow in the wind. Like the tight fit of canopy since it does not flap or blow in wind, and rain runs off rather than puddling. Canvas style material of the cushion and canopy appear to be sturdy. The price was right compared to other patio swings.

Delivery:

Very very heavy (200 lbs?), but the delivery guy agreed to put it all the way inside the garage. This way it was closer to the setup area, and it is easier open box to bring each piece outside.

Assembly:

Took about 5+hrs, for 1 single person to assemble. Directions are just pictures, but not too difficult to follow. Would have preferred a second hand, and would have made it much easier and quicker, especially with the heavy weight of each piece.

At one point thought I didn't have enough proper sized screws, but magically it all came together without anything missing. Note: There are 2 different size screws that are mixed together, so be careful to separate before assembly.

Should have made sure back of the frame was facing the wall, instead I had to turn it (after frame assembled) and could only inch by inch for 45 degrees as to not bend the frame.

Be aware that if putting against a building there is a 6 inch overhang on all sides with the canopy.

Most difficult thing was attaching the top canvas canopy with only 1 person.

If a 63 yr old woman with an mechanical aptitude can do it by herself, so can you. Just get a second person to make it easier on yourself.

Summary: It's heavy to assemble, but heavy against the wind too. The cushion is about 2 inches thick and has a small velcro strap to hold it in place; could be more comfortable, but it is simply lovely to sit outside with a nice book and a couple extra pillows.

Solid quality swing. I imagine the canopy part might not last long but won’t be a big deal to replace if needed. We are happy with our purchase!

Easy to assemble and comfortable.

I have updated my review to reflect the absolutely amazing customer service i have received upon the seller reading my review. This seller makes their customers satisfaction a priority and for that reason i will definitely refer my friends and family here to their store!

My mom (See Dorothy's review) LOVED the porch swing I bought her for her birthday last year... however as she said the canopy was damaged badly in a storm, and impossible to replace - Just a Heads up, I had to purchase the ENTIRE SWING a second time just to get a new Canopy.... so... If this one gets damaged, I will replace the swing somewhere else..

I LOVE my swing that was a gift from my daughter a year ago! My only challenge is that my canopy was damaged by a storm and I cannot find help on the Grand Patio site to replace it!

I was worried when Fedex showed up with a ripped up box...and a random bolt was seen through a hole that I'd be missing pieces (the box was mishandled by Fedex, hopefully not sent from warehouse like that...) If it had been shipped any further, I would've lost many bolts that the plastic packaging they were in was broken open and 42 bolts were strewn about among the poles/bars other items in the big box. This arrived in 1 box that weighed over 100lbs and states 2 man carry yet Fedex decided only 1 person was capable of the job causing him to drag it along the ground to get it to my porch on delivery day. It is HEAVY duty. After luckily not losing any bolts in this process through the gaping holes, all pieces were accounted for in the box. Some of the metal on the poles were scraped up through the individually bubble wrapped pieces, but nothing major just minor scratches from being dragged. Again I blame Fedex for this mishandling of the product box. Overall it took me around 4hrs to build it. I did have help when assembling the sides together with the back bar to stand it up but for most part part, solo assembly. It went together pretty good. I didn't tighten the bolts until it was mostly assembled then fully tightened them all afterwards. As a 5'5" person, it was a struggle to do the top bolts during assembly and having my arms above my head and having to get a step stool to finish it was the most annoying part of the assembly. It looks great and the metal frame is definitely more heavy duty than other cheap frames out there. Hoping it lasts for a long time! So far the kids like it and are swinging on it daily. The cushion is plenty thick. Overall super satisfied and love the whole swing and set up. Ready for summer!
