After two years, this set is toast.  The finish only lasted one year even though it was brought inside in the winter.  We have sets that are 20 years old and look better.  We take care of our furniture so it lasts but this set is a lost cause.  As people who make furniture, this set is a low quality build as well (at least the table).  The chairs are a bit nicer but like the table, the finish did not last more than a year.  I really wanted to like this set, but then again what did I expect for this price
