The main thing that I like about this set is that the legs and bases are metal and they are sturdy. My bf is 250lbs and can sit in them just fine. However they don’t seem the most comfortable for him because the backs don’t come up very high and therefore he can rest all the way back in them. They feel comfortable to me but wouldn’t sit in them for an extended time. The cushions almost looked like a dark blue in the photos and I was hoping they were closer to a black and they are. I also like that they come with ties. One thing to note was that the assembly wasn’t too difficult however our “front” chair legs and “ottoman top  bottom” were not labeled correctly so pay attention to those instructions when putting together. Overall I really like the way they look and are a nice addition to our patio.
