This is definitely a CONVERSATION SET- don't expect to relax in these chairs - they are best when you're sitting upright. I'm not sure it was the best set for us as I like to sit and read on the porch, and to do so requires laying on the loveseat end draping legs over the side. The composition of this set: love seat and chair w/ottoman, makes it difficult for two of us to be relaxing together.
It's a great set for sitting and talking or sitting and having dinner/drinks.
Nice construction, easy to put together and modern looking. Eventually cushions will need to be replaced as the tan cushions that come with the set were darker than we thought- website portrayed them as lighter, but they are a honey tan color.
