Ordered these for our deck, we had a prior version without the wood on top of the side arms. That is where out last ones failed but not until after 7 years when the wicker started getting brittle and breaking apart on one. We liked them so much we ordered this new version. Takes time to put them together and comes with parts and tools. The cushions are very firm and comfortable and the ottomans are a nice addition to our prior set. My only criticism is the fabric for the cushions is thin polyester which is states in the description, we purchased on sale but based on the original price a nice, thick sunbrella fabric would give these a more upscale look. The fabric is ok but makes them look a bit cheap. We'll most likely have new covers made but what's the point when it is sold with them, you shouldn't have to recover them to improve the quality and look.
