This a beautiful set, arrived in perfect condition. Chairs arrived without any need to assemble, table needed assembling, but it wasn't too difficult. High quality materials. Now we'll see how this woven material (not sure what it was!) stands up to the sun and rain. my only problem with this set is that the chairs have the now-popular long seats, too long for my legs, and the back slants too far back, so that I'm not sitting up straight. after a while, my back starts hurting. But the style is very attractive.
