I really like this furniture set!!! I was very satisfied with the thickness of the cushions! There was no assembly required other than unpacking and putting the glass on the tables! It is a low back but the cushions are very comfortable for sitting! If you are a taller person it may be a little small for you but I am 5' 4" and it is perfect for me. It is worth the price for as many pieces you get! It did also come with a cover but have not used them yet. There were no issues on the quality of this set! We did receive two boxes one day and two boxes two days later! Love it!!!
