I love the looks, and it's a sturdy set- especially for the price point.  But I have two issues with this set.  The first, the directions on the single chair base are not clear on exactly how best to proceed with the combination of washers, nuts, etc.  It's great that there are extra parts, but it wasn't clear where to place the washers since the already attached set is different than the directions.  Second, and this one is a much bigger use issue for me - the back seat cushions have no tabs to attach to the frames.  Only the base cushions can attach to the frames.  I predict a summer of the cushions blowing all over, and ending up in the pool  Had I seen that before purchasing, I most likely would NOT have purchased this set.
