THIS IS A GREAT PRODUCT WITH STABLE CONSTRUCTION, COMFORTABLE SEATING AND AFTER ONE RAIN WAS ABLE TO HOLD IT'S OWN TO STAND UP TO THE ELEMENTS.  THE ONLY DOWNFALL IS THAT THE CUSHIONS HAVE A HARD TIME STAYING UP.  i'D RECOMMEND SECURING THEM TO THE STRUCTURE OF THE COUCH IF YOU WANT TO KEEP THEM OUT.  OTHERWISE KEEP THE IN A SAFE SPOT WHEN NOT USING THE COUCH.
