I but most of my furniture and household items from wayfair. i bought this last year august, on sale. i had just moved into my new apartment, which is small and cozy. i bought this because it is not large and bulky and the size was suitable for the space i was working with. what made me purchase this was the bar-stool design, the height of the table, and the straw-designed seats. the pieces were easy to assemble once you organize the parts first. the set is durable and so far they have stood up to me sitting for hours on them as i write and do my online business. the color is exactly as seen in the picture. and as always, wayfair got this to me in just a few days. i recommend. pros: durable finish, great valuecons: none
