I cannot understand the rave reviews for this.  Although the wood is very attractive, the cushions are awful!  I looked for covers for the "plastic" cushions until I realized there were none.  Returning items is quite a hassel (store credit or pay the shipping) so we decided to have covers made for the cushions. This purchase turned out not to be the bargain we thought we were getting!  It's a shame  because the design is very nice.
