Which is better for a heavy sitter?

The highwood Lehigh, at 400 lb versus 380 lb for the Loyalice. Both use 304 stainless hardware, so the frame is the limit, not the screws.

Which has the wider seat?

The Loyalice, at 26.97 in versus 23.25 in for the Lehigh. That extra width matters for larger sitters or sharing with a child.

Which lasts longer outdoors?

Both are HDPE-based and weatherproof, so lifespan is similar. The Lehigh has a longer track record and more color options if fading is a concern.

Is the Loyalice worth it over the Lehigh?

Only if you need the wider seat or want the wood-grain look in black. Otherwise the Lehigh's higher capacity and color range make it the safer pick.

Do either need painting or staining?

No. Both are maintenance-free plastic; the Lehigh can be cleaned with a power wash each season.

The Loyalice is a wider-seat black rocker rated 380 lb with a wood-grain texture, but it has only 19 ratings.
