Previously we had a couple of zero gravity chairs in our covered porch which I hated the look of and were terrible for having company over.  This modular seating group has transformed our porch into a cozy place that we spend way more time in now. The fact that I can separate or change the grouping is a huge bonus.  The quality is fantastic for the price point. Like other reviewers, I don't understand why the manufacturer did not add a way to tie the cushions to the frame, but it hasn't been a huge problem. We really love this set and just might add to it!
