Know before you buy
Western Red Cedar is naturally resistant to decay, rot, and insect damage due to the oils present in the wood. While it is highly durable, applying a stain or sealant will help maintain its original color and protect it from UV-related graying over time.
The Amish Cedar Wood Fanback Glider is built for stability and supports a weight capacity of up to 500 lbs, making it suitable for two or more people depending on the length selected.
Yes, the glider arrives partially assembled. You will need to complete the final assembly steps, but the process is straightforward and designed to be manageable with basic household tools.
No, the glider is designed with a clean aesthetic that hides the hardware. It uses specialized construction techniques to ensure no screws are visible, maintaining a smooth, rustic look.
The 4-foot model is ideal for smaller porches or intimate seating areas, while the 5-foot and 6-foot options provide more room for multiple people. Measure your intended space, leaving at least 12 to 18 inches of clearance on all sides to allow for the gliding motion.
Because of the cedar's natural properties and the zinc-plated, rust-resistant hardware, the glider can withstand year-round exposure. However, covering it during harsh winter months or periods of heavy precipitation will significantly extend the life and appearance of the wood.
