The piece is exactly as described. I'm anxious to see how it holds up over time. Some of the wicker weaves were broken upon arrival.  One piece of metal was bent on the sofa part, but hubby was able to fix it. The coffee table leans a little to one side. To put it together, the hubby used his own "real" tools, instead of the ones included, which made it go together quite quickly~just under an hour. The furniture is not the best example of fine workmanship, but since we got a great price, we feel that we got what we paid for. The seat cushions are on the firmer side. The "back" cushions are not supportive at all. I may end up buying some more polyfill to stuff in them. All of the fabric is removable, so that will be nice for easy washing and when it comes time to recover the cushion fabric. Overall, we are pleased with the purchase. It did take about 3 weeks to arrive, but it was probably due to the winter storms.
