This set is very beautiful. I like wicker but all the pieces that I viewed were very dark. This is a bit on the grey tone as well. Cushions are very comfortable. We accidently had a tiny stain and it wiped clean easily. It takes a bit to put together and it arrived in one big box. There were even extra screws included. Cushions were in plastic and other pieces in Bubble Cushion so it was well protected. Glass is amber. I didn't realize that from picture but just makes the set more attractive.
