This is a beautiful outdoor dining set! It is our second summer with it and it is holding up great.  It is very sturdy and well made.  The bases of the two swivel chairs make them a bit heavier than the other four chairs. Be prepared when you order this that you will have to be home for a special delivery as it is comes in several very large and heavy boxes.  Make sure someone strong can help you out with this delivery. The color is a nice dark color with brushed undertones that make it spectacular. I am truly happy we chose this dining set.
