This modern-looking dining set is even nicer than the pictures! It has generous dimensions, yet fits perfectly on my condo balcony. Incredibly sturdy and of significant weight, I don't have to worry about the wind blowing the set over. We live on the ocean and the high-quality plastic is sure to resist the salty air. It's just perfect! We too had a terrible time with the chair assembly as the screw holes don't line up, but as others have said, worth the hassle.
