What originally drew me to this set was the price. Most outdoor furniture sets are close to or over $1000 and we just needed something practical for an outdoor gazebo, so this seemed promising. Based on what my husband told me, it was somewhat difficult to put together and took several hours. It also had an odor to it that took weeks to air out. The set is relatively small and of mediocre quality, but again, it serves its purpose and we're happy to have a place to sit in our gazebo.
