I love this little set. We nee....well, we wanted something for our patio area while still maintaining room to walk and our outdoor kitchen/dining area on the deck.  This works perfectly.  The cushions are about a quarter of the thickness from our old conversation set which was a wallyworld find.  While they are much thinner, they are much better quality - the foam is actually quite dense.  We live in Georgia so there's no sleeping under the Nicolas Sparks stars or anything, but I mean, i've sat on them throughout a few nights of entertaining and they're just fine and what we wanted for a great price.
