This is a stunning set.  It looks like real teak and we will be oiling it seasonally twenty and maintain its beauty. The directions were easy and we (hibby and I) had it together in no time.  The quality appears to be great.  The cushions feel like they are great quality.  They are on the stiffer side, but I like that because they hold their shape.  The chairs and very comfortable with room to spare.  You can really curl up in this set.  We just got them so only time will tell on how well they hold up, but if they prove to be as great as we thing they are, we see another set in our future.
