The furniture was perfect for my apartment balcony. It really transformed it into a beautiful patio to sit outside day or night. The screws were a little hard to screw in place because the Allen key is a bit long and gets in the way of a full turn. I just received this the other day and set it up with the help of my dad. :) I'm a short, petite person and can move these seats myself, so they're not overly heavy. So far, the seats and side table that I used as a coffee table instead, are holding up. No squeaking wood that I read in other reviews. The seat cushions may look thin, but they're firm and comfortable. The small pillows for the back are more squishy, which feels nice. I'm hoping it holds up against the Texas heat and rain. I may spray the cushions with something similar to Scotchguard to protect them or take it inside on rainy days. I may also purchase seat covers. I really love it, and I've already received so many compliments since I posted a picture on social media!!
