Great little modern patio set for the money. Sure there are other more expensive options with better wood or larger seats or thicker cushions, but at the end of the day if you want something that looks great and isn't wicker or ikea this might be a perfect fit. The cushions are surprisingly comfy (not cushy) and with some pillows can be plenty accommodating to relax and kick back with a drink or book. The natural color cushions seem to look the best and although they show dirt and debris easier can be removed and washed. The wood is fairly well-finished with a light stain but I would recommend using a protectant (wax or clear finish). Also, fitted covers can be found for under $100 for the set and will extend the life for several years no doubt. All in all though you'd be hard pressed to find a better modern patio set made of fairly high-quality wood for the money. Shipped in 2 days without any detectable damage.
