A year later, covered through a Northern winter, still beautiful. 

The table top is not perfectly flat; it has a barely noticeable curve. Some gave 1 star for this, but it is a design feature and it is quite lovely. Table linens stay put, and you would likely only notice the curve if you tried to outfit the surface with Lexan or some other solid top. 

This set does not budge in high winds - a feature I sought.
