Our outdoor chair got played by our puppies 😅 so i bought this it has a little bit different color, i wasn’t sure what color was our chair so i took chances. This material is very durable. A great price and quick delivery.

I purchased this item to repair the set of 5 outdoor chairs, original rattan material over the years became brittle and therefore unsafe to sit on. Fixed my patio furniture and saved us a ton of money.
