Looking for a bench for my mums garden and game across these at a reasonable price. Three styles to choose from, it doesn't say in the listing if the wood has been treated so you may want to treat / varnish.
Product Features: * Solid Build * Cast Iron Verdigris Finish Frame * Cast iron leg and cast iron effect plastic back * Hardwoods Slats * Brand new carton box with instructions
Last I looked these had plastic backs, do these have cast iron backs (the decorative bit in the centre)?

I bought one of these for a similar price several years ago and they're ok, but a bit flimsy. 2 average weight adults sitting on it feels a bit dicey!

Yes, that matches our assessment. Cast iron legs but plastic framework in back.

I bought one of these last summer, they are quiet flimsy and the wood is not well treated, I wouldn't get another one

Based on the negative reviews and similar comments in this thread - how has this made the Top 10 deals on HUKD? :neutral_face:

I was just wondering that, it sounds absolutely terrible. I wouldn't have it for free.

I bought one last summer, I think I paid under £30, the metal frame is rusting, the wood has weathered badly and the back panel is plastic, it is very flimsy, I wouldn't buy another, I suppose you get what you pay for, it is very cheap and would not recommend it.
Well done poster, you have made hundreds waste their money on an impulse purchase just because it looks cheap and the item picture looks like you'll be getting a quality item. You wont, its garbage.
