This couch is great.  I had been looking for a while for an outdoor couch that was not crazy expensive.  This product arrived very quickly.  I put it together by myself which took around 30 minutes.  It would probably be only around 15 minutes if I had someone to help.  It looks amazing AND is comfortable!  I live in California where it never rains in the summer but of course it rained the first week after I set up the couch.  The couch, though, was completely fine after the rain stopped!  No issues at all.
