I got this 9 months ago, and up until recently couldn't be happier with it.  But a week or two ago I used simply some water and a sponge to wash off some dirt that had gathered on it over the winter months, and the brown paint started to flake off.  Maybe I'm off base here, but I think something like this should last several years before it starts falling apart, not 9 months.

Pros: Looks great
Cons: Poor quality
