Initially I loved this set. I had it for a month, then covered it with a weatherproof cover including the chairs. I uncovered it for the season three days ago. The chairs have splits, and the table top is covered with patches of flaking chipping stain. Part of the table top is lifting, creating an uneven surface. I used a high quality cover, and was careful to protect the set. I did not purchase the extra warranty based on other reviews on the site. No outdoor set with a description of weather resistance should deteriorate while covered in this way. Very, very disappointed. Buyer beware….
