Cant beat the price point for the product you receive
is not letting me turn my photos the correct way. My apologies for that. But I have tried to lude photos with and without cushions, and also prior to assembly so you can really see the pieces. I also show you my hand on a cushion so you have an idea of thickness and also show you that the cushion covers are zippered and come off to wash.
I work in retail and spent a LOT of time searching for patio furniture this year that would be comfortable, low maintenance, versatile, have flexible seating, be practical for dining, and be a reasonable price for how much we are able to use it. We live in Ohio and only get to use our outdoor furniture 4/5 months a year, which limits what I was willing to pay. This set offers a lot of great features like a sectional sofa, ottomans/ extra seating, and a dining/height table. It also sells for approximately half the price of a comparable set offered by nearly every other retailer.
We did have to wait about a month for the set to arrive, which was fine. Tracking was via FedEx and did seem to have some conflicting info on when it would arrive but no big deal. The shipment arrives in three boxes. The largest box is the size of the tabletop but its flat, and the other two boxes are the length of the sectional backs and about two feet tall. All boxes are about 50/60 lbs. Most of the space is cushions and all the panels are packed relatively flat. I warn you when you take the pieces out of the box it doesnt look anything like what you end up with when assembled .
Assembly itself was pretty simple. The directions rely on photos and there arent too many words. Take the time before you start to sort the pieces for each sectional seat together, the table pieces, and the pieces for each cube. Also I took a couple plastic cups and sorted the screws ahead of time which really helped while assembling. There are three different lengthsover 60 of the same screws and then 4 short/ 4 long with washers. They all come together in one large bag. They are metric hex screws if you want to buy a bit or driver ahead of time.
Two people are helpful for assembly just due to how you have to told the parts. Directions showed someone holding a piece in place lined up while someone else does the screws, but I found it easier to lay the pieces on their sides and do it that way. My 8 year old helped with the sectional pieces and she and I assembled all three in about 45 minutes. Another adult helped me with the table and it took about ten minutes. The little cubes take the longest because of the number of screws. I would say those took me about 20 minutes each. If the sides of the cubes without feet dont seem to line up with the holes well, try flipping the piece upside down and they seem to fit better. Assembly was time consuming but simple.
The quality is nice for the price, I think. The cushions are a little over three hes thick and are comfortable to sit on. One of the sectional pieces that is intended for the corner sofa part has a slightly higher arm. There is a steel bar through the center of the sectional pieces to provide extra support between the two seats. It is a little uncomfortable if you end up right on that bar but perfectly fine if you put your butt to either side of it. Its comfortable to stretch across with your feet up on the sofa. I love nestling into the corner. As other reviews mention it is a little lower than you might expect. However, its not at all uncomfortable and we arent super tall people (I am 52 and my husband is about 510). Same goes for the cubes. Those are pretty stable to sit on as an extra seat but generally smaller people would find them more comfortable. The only change I would have liked to see is another 4/6 in depth on the seats. The back cushions are really fill and comfortable, but it makes you feel like maybe you are sitting more on the edge than you would expect. I have found shifting a back pillow against the arm so I can sit back a little further to be comfortable.
Its important to note there are three sectional sections and three cubes when you look at the seller provided photo of different configurations, in case you were thinking you could arrange individual center sections like chairs with a couch on either side. There are three pieces that each have a corner arm. The drawing shows how many people you can comfortably seat, not how many individual pieces there are. For a dinner with all adults we take apart the three sections and set one on each side of the table and we can seat 6 comfortably, plus people on cubes. There are not brackets or anything to latch the sections together when using them as a full corner sofa. I didnt add any hardware because we move them around often but if you wanted to add some hardware to keep the pieces together, it wouldnt be difficult. There is also not Velcro for the cushions and again, not a big deal for me but it would be easy to add if you wanted.
The table is definitely the most quality piece in the set. The top is heavy and made of a material almost like a composite decking. It is a really well made piece of furniture.
We take the cushions in if it is supposed to rain. They accidentally got rained on once and we leaned them up to dry with no issues. I need to get a deck box to store them.
Overall I highly recommend this set and am happy we went with it. We have been using it for about three weeks and have eaten dinner outside nearly every night. Hoping to purchase a gas firepit in the fall to swap out for the table when entertaining after dinner
