Love this grouping. Very comfortable. The cushions are fairly soft - if you want really plush, this may not be your set. Having chairs that rock has been great. We like that the furniture is not heavy. We did buy covers for all the pieces for the winter. Biggest drawback is that they rust, particularly the tables, and when you move them, the rust drips out and stains everything - clothing, outdoor carpet, patio. Just be careful when you move them.
