We bought this set to replace an old 5 pc dining set that just looked tired in contrast to our brand new house.  This is perfect for our family of 5 (with three giant 6+' tall teenagers).  Super solid construction with heavy base/legs, solid table top, wood chairs & bench.  The table extends for a leaf and it's super cool with gears that make pulling it apart really easy.  Gorgeous color and arrived on time with no damage.  I would highly recommend this.
