After spending the money to install a new pool we decided to be economical with the furniture and was hoping to get a full season out of this set. This is a much better product than i anticipated. We will have had them all summer and I simply say that for the price they can't be beat. 
Assembly was fairly easy, they are very sturdy and look really good around our pool. I would buy this set again without reservation. I feel that it has a very modern look and is plenty comfortable for our use.
