The Sofa is definitely what we like to show off in our backyard. The installation and assembly was fairly straightforward for someone without any experience putting together furniture pieces this large, since all three seats come separate but then lock together with bolts. The cushions we picked were exactly what we thought they would look like. The teak wood really is attractive with any style of deck, so I'm really pleased with it. The size is perfect and can fit three people comfortably - and probably a fourth if there's not other seating available. The cover we bought for it also works great because it's custom to the size of the Sofa, so I look forward to using that when it rains. All in all, we're pretty pleased with our purchase - and I'd highly recommend this piece to anyone who is building an outdoor furnished space like a deck or patio.
