We shopped around quite a while looking for a conversation set that would compliment our patio set up. This grouping is sturdy, the cushions are made of quality fabric that wipes clean and I assembled the pieces by myself. Assembly is not difficult if the bolts are placed but not tightened until the piece is together. The woven rattan and neutral cushions will make changing the look for each season simple and beautiful. Purchasing the set on a sale day made the price irresistible! Very happy with this furniture!
