I ordered this couch to put out under our back patio, which is covered with an awning, for the kids to hang out on while reading or playing the Wii.  I was shocked when I received it thinking each chair would come together in individual boxes.  Didn't realize I'd have to put each chair together, which took me two days.  That's why this product gets four stars, instead of five.  The cushions are super water resistant, with spills just rolling off, which is great.  The cushion inserts are so lightweight like a feather.  I am going to look into having new cushion inserts made to fit into the covers.  Am overall happy with this product.  I'm 5'10 and the back of the chair rest comes up to my mid-hip, so definitely not the tallest of couches.  If I was purchasing this for myself and other grownups to lounge in, I wouldn't be as happy.  But since it's for the kids, and for the price I paid, I'm thrilled.
