Four stars is where I landed between the look, style and size of the set versus the overall quality. Pros: beautiful and fits on a small deck. I wanted a set that didn't take up my entire deck as I have 2 dogs and the deck is their "bathtub". The furniture seems sturdy and is comfortable. Cons: the pieces do not align. I assembled as instructed leaving wiggle room until all pieces were in place. Each chair/loveseat had a diagonal wobble. I fixed it with the stick on felt furniture pads. We will see how that works in an outdoor situation. The table was perfect. I expected better quality for the price; although the set cost about what a loveseat and chair at the big box store would have cost me. So between a 5 for looks and comfort and a 3 for initial quality, I landed at a 4. Hopefully I will be pleasantly surprised over time with the durability of my furniture!
