The wicker is cheap and loosely bound, and has started to fray in a couple areas, despite only having been used a couple times in the first couple of weeks.  If you are sitting on the chairs without the pads, you can easily feel the support bars on the chair which are really uncomfortable.  These are super cheap, compared to most other poolside furniture, and look nice.  However, I'll be surprised if they last more than a year or two at most.  Probably should have paid up for something better.  

Pros: Look nice
Cons: not very durable, not very comfortable
