I purposely waited two years to review this set so I could determine how the set held up aesthetically and physically. First off let me say, this set is absolutely beautiful and adds a contemporary look to my living room. The see through structures give the area a real light and open feeling. This set has survived the 2 years with my 3 year old daughter so they are durable. Only dislike is they began to rust in some places. I have to coat them often. Overall great buy!
