Overall, I am disappointed in the quality of this furniture. The hardware was very poor quality and stripped out easily. None of the holes lined up correctly, which made assembly very frustrating. The pillows that form the back rest are BARELY bug enough to cover the back and constantly fall over due to there being no way to secure them to the backrest. For the price I paid for this furniture group, I had much higher expectations. I cannot see this set lasting more than 2 years before it starts falling apart. The company that sold this piece should be ashamed that they charged almost $1500 for a furniture set that I'd saybis worth AT MOST half that price.
