Very sturdy set and looks good. The chairs were a bit tricky to assemble (have a rubber mallet handy if the two cross pieces are a bit tight). The table arrived a day early (with no instructions, but we figured it out pretty easily) and the chairs a day late. The chairs seem disproportionately large for the table, taking up a bit more space on our porch than expected. But the set is comfortable, attractive and sturdy, and buying it on sale we got a great deal.
