Loved this dining set when we first set it up. Solid wood structure, great color, comfortable, wide seating. However, after 2 months, the stain on this dining set completely stripped on both the table and chairs. We filed a complaint, including pictures, and have not heard back. If you live in an area where it rains or you don't get your patio set in at the first sign of cool temperatures, I would not recommend this item from a longevity standpoint.
