I live in the extreme heat in Phoenix. I've had the chair under my covered porch that faces North for a year. The chairs are well made, Saturday and don't get direct sunlight. No problems so far.

Our model/Diamonback has a very soft cushioned back, it is not mesh. Both the seat and back rest are made of a soft leather type of material which has held up well. Hope this helps!

No, but if you get the black one, the sun really makes it hot. I love my chair but the only problem I have with the padding is that, when it rains, it retains all the rain, if you feel of the chair it feels dry, but once you sit down, its like sitting in a puddle. So, I have to move it back & forth, out of the weather if its raining, but its so comfortable, you feel weightless. Hope this helps!

Not true. This chair is mesh, just as described. There IS a version of this chair with a non-mesh seat. So, unless the person mistakenly ordered that one, he was shipped the wrong chair.

It is mainly body heat that warms you up, but I have both this one and the mesh one, and the zip down panel does make a difference. I'd say which to get depends on where you live... it has to be pretty hot (like, over 85*, for me at least) before the mesh helps much... and the cotton is softer and generally more comfortable (though not by a large margin). So if its hot a lot where you live, go mesh. If heat isn't an all-the-time issue, go cotton

These chairs are very comfortable at first and yes you can curl up in them as long as you are average size, but after awhile, the cushions lose their "fluff" and become uncomfortable. I've had mine for aver a year, and am in the process of looking for replacement cushions, though I can't seem to find them without having to buy the chairs again. I sit in the chairs everyday for several hours a day. As for the arms getting hot, I can't answer. Mine stay in the shade.

Wow, good question. I have had mine for 1 year and I have no idea if I have a good or bad one. It seems very well made and has held up well. My one complaint is that the back of the chair is in a very upright position. When my little guy first started using it, he sat towards the front so his feet would stay on the ground. Now that he is bigger, he sits back but looks uncomfortable, like the back is too straight. So he basically turns it over and leans on it. I got him another chair, the rocker from walmart, much cheaper, and he seems to use that one more because it looks (and I guess) feels more comfortable.

I haven't noticed it getting hot but I have cushions on the seat. It doesn't seem like it would get too hot but my patio doesn't have direct sun. The chairs seemed to be higher than typical bar height and were a little tricky getting in them. It looks great sitting on my patio hahaha

My set is in a shaded area on my deck. It has not gotten to hot to sit in but it is warm. Hope that helps

Yes it does get to hot to use when sitting directly in the hot summer sun. Ours is in the direct sun but I personally don't like sitting out in the hot sun. I prefer sitting on the bench when the sun goes down. We wanted a bench that did not require maintenance and so far this bench has proven to be just that. We have been pleased with this bench.

I live in Oklahoma and it gets very hot during the summer. The fabric didn't get that hot, just warm sitting in the car. Now, the metal part to buckle the child in does get very hot, but it will with any car seat with metal parts.

My set is in the sun, near the pool. I do keep an umbrella open all season long, and for that reason I think this helps.I have not had any complaints about the chairs being too hot from family or guests.

It seems to be a super-duper canvas of some kind :) Of course I don't know for sure, I didn't save the tags : ( but that's how it feels and looks. We have not left ours in constant sun exposure; but it has quite a bit of sun. We've had a beige one for three years, and now this one. We love them! The natural comfort of the fabric, plus the depth of the seat and the height of the back make this chair especially comfy for we older folks :)

The metal does get pretty warm. I bought a cushion to sit on and it works great.

It does get hot after use but just don't touch that part- not hard to avoid. It cools down fairly quickly

I live in New Hampshire were there can be mildew problems. Our chair has not had any problem with mildew although it is in the sun most of the time so mildew might not form.
