dont buy this swing, you will be on the floor, if is not the swing the one one the floor, the poorest quality ever seen, only buy it if you want to have it as a decoration in your backyard. Color is nice, thats it. just blow some air and it will be head down. Assembly: little difficult

Swing is not comfortable. Swing seat not deep enough; pillows slide off.

We bought this despite the many negative comments. It turns out that assembly is a snap. I did it in the evenings after dark and had no problems. Maybe the pictures could be a little bigger, but all of the required information for assembly is there. So I have to disagree with those saying that assembly is difficult.
The big problem is with the product and packaging design; both are quite poor.
The swing appears to be designed primarily to operate in the 'bed' mode, which actually works quite nicely. However, when you put it into 'seat' mode, it's not so impressive. The swing hangs centered when set up as a bed. Conversion to a seat simply involves raising half the bed to serve as the seat-back. Naturally, this moves the center of gravity forward causing the suspended assembly to hang off center toward the rear. Now, when you sit on it, your weight shifts the swing's center of gravity even further forward, resulting in the swing hanging even more toward the rear so that the seat slopes downhill. Adding to that the slippery fabric and the too-large seat cushion, you tend to slide off the swing unless actively holding on. It's annoying for adults and dangerous for young children.
The canopy looks great, but I'd like to be able to tilt it back at night to look at the stars. Tilt it back any more than shown in the picture though, and it whacks you in the head when swinging.
Packaging is amateurish at best. It all comes in one huge box with the heavy metal parts packed along with the squishy cushions so the metal parts can move about quite freely during transit. The box is made from poor-quality cardboard which is neither rigid nor strong. I'm not sure whom to thank, the manufacturer or Fed-Ex, for the large quantity of repair tape holding the box together. Without the tape, parts would have been falling out. As it is, most of the parts were marred from banging into each other. Other reviewers have complained of numerous bent parts so I guess I got lucky in only receiving one bent part.
I gave two stars vs. one because it shipped quickly, was easy to assemble, and we love the color.

Had to dis assemble because no actual steps to follow. Put one piece together only to find it needed another piece in the same hole. Difficult to do alone.

HORRENDOUS TASK!!
