It is perfect next to my glider bench, but I am taking it inside when the wind is forecast to be strong, as the glider blew over 3 days after I got it, and it got a bit scratched up.  The table might have more damage, and I don't think it is heavy enough withstand this unusual weather.  The top is beautiful, it is the right size for a cup of whatever, a book and a cell phone.  I am loving the combination, having a space to relax and read.
