I really like this conversation set! It has a boxy look but it is still comfortable with nice deep seating. I especially like the large table as similar sets seem to have a much smaller table. The silver color is very nice and I love that the set is made of real wood! The seating is very straight backed but that works for me as I have a touchy back that does not like to slouch! The only reason I took a star away is the cushions. They are rather thin and take wrinkles easily. I expected they would leave a little to be desired after reading other reviewers comments so I went ahead and ordered some sturdier, comfier ones and am glad I did. The cushions it came with are an off white/ cream color which I cannot understand! It is a terrible choice for outdoor furniture! The aqua throw pillows are lovely though, if a bit firm. They all seem to dry well though and so far are holding up.
