We were so excited to receive this set! The height is just right and the cushions have a good amount of "fluff" to them - not too flat. I also love the fact that the covers can be removed (zip) and washed - really handy! One note - it is more difficult to assemble than we thought. A drill has come in handy, though it can be done with the tools provided. On average, it takes about 45 minutes per piece of furniture (longer than IKEA products).
