We bought the set a year ago and waited to get through a few seasons before reviewing.  It's in great shape and covered again for it's second winter. No signs of wear from being outside for over a year (we covered it from Dec 1 to March 1). We've had guests over several times and they love the table as well.  It's big enough to have a couple of platters of food and still leave room for 4 people to eat without feeling cramped. We put our own cushions on the chairs, nothing bulky and they made the set perfect.  Last, we have had serious wind storms and the set has held it's ground. Would definitely recommend.
