I love the looks of this set and it is high quality for the price. My only issues are it feels like a little unfinished (I am thinking of putting on a coat of polyeurethane) We have it on a screened in porch so it is well protected. Also I HIGHLY recommend getting an allen wrench drill bit. I did not have one and did all of it by hand and the last chair I had the screw slightly crooked (and they are really long, like 2.5 inch screws) and I never actually got it all the way in, so that chair may or may not last.
