Our handyman put the furniture together and said it was easy to assemble. the chairs were larger than we thought they would be. However we bought some extra pillows that make them more usable and comfortable. We think it was good value for the price.

After milling over so many different styles of wicker furniture, I finally decided on this set. my husband and I love it! When we have had another couple over to our log home, it has been the perfect set for 4 people. the cushions are comfy, the wicker is of good substance and quality, and we have gotten rave reviews from our friends.

It took me forever to assemble,it’s a 2 person job for sure.Very comfortable,nice and roomy but my big gripe is the colour,I was very disappointed to see how different the colour was to the actual picture.If you like purple and have lots of patience with assembling things then go for it.the price is excellent so I’ve given it 4 stars.

The other reviews are correct. the cushion is stark white, even more so now that we stained the bench. It would be pretty easy to recover though. the drawers do not open or close smoothly. but I bought knowing/expecting all that. this bench is perfect for our purposes, it hides all the shoes that end up kicked off in our entryway, and it hides all our paper/cardboard recycling. I wish it had been offered in different finishes but it took the stain with no problem (we used a brush rather than cloth). Now it perfectly fits in with our decor.

Tried to order this from two other online vendors. their delivery dates were about a 45-60 day wait.Amazon.com delivered this item to me in 5 days! I will be using this item in my home office as extraseating and the two drawers already contain my hanging file frame and files! Works perfectly! Looksgreat and the old metal filing cabinet has been donated! I am working on a solution to make the drawersof the bench seat work a bit more smoothly. the weight of my files make opening and shutting them abit difficult. Perhaps a piece of thin laminate board inside underneath the drawers would give betterin and out action. At any rate, I am very, very pleased with the quality of this product, very sturdy,the size is just perfect for a small area and the look is very attractive.

The storage seat is very attractive. the drawers stick a bit when pushed back in. the cushion cover is made of a very shoddy fabric, not a big problem for me since I had intended to re-cover it anyway. It does look lovely in the space it was purchased to occupy.

We needed storage for our front hall foyer underneath the wall coat rack. this storage bench was the perfect fit and looks great. the storage baskets do not slide out easily, but are large and otherwise very functional. the white cushion was a bit too austere, so we replaced it with two decorative pillows….very nice! We were very satisfied with the sturdiness of the bench and the fact that it came fully assembled and ready to use. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect for placing at foot of bed. fairly sturdy but light – would probably support no more than 200 lbs at very most. Drawers are roomy and hold a lot of items. I liked the fact that no assembly is required and can start using right out of the box. Looks very nice for price.

I received the chair way before the delivery date. I was satisfied with how fast I got it. I live on an island and everything takes a wee longer to get to me. As for the chair, I was a little disappointed with the size when I first saw it. It was my fault for not looking at the dimensions, but the picture gave me the sense that it was a large chair. It is much smaller than I anticipated. the chair is comfortable. It is well made. It is sophisticated and good looking.

This chair is just what I was looking for. I needed something for a small corner of a small room that would be easy to clean. the size is perfect. although most people would probably use this chair outside because it is a durable resin, I think it’s fine for indoors dressed up with a decorative seat cushion. I’m very happy.

I was looking for a smaller profile wicker chair set for my back porch, and these chairs fit the bill. They are stylish and comfortable, and they do not take up a lot of room. They are great for the price.

Love this little chair. It fits nicely into a small space without hogging too much room. clean lines, modern looking, unique. I’ve paired it with the similar wicker sectional set. comfy but not ‘overstuffed’ (i don’t like the oddly oversized furniture sold at many box stores). If the construction is similar to the sectional set, should hold up very well. Note that it is made of polyethylene, not PVC (polyvinyl chloride). PVC is very toxic in its manufacturing; i bought this chair specifically because it was not made of PVC/vinyl.

along with the lounger this is easily the best value in the enitre range & quite stunning. we bought 4 of these & are very pleased. they are comfortable, & take up little room. the price is simply incredible. we bought 2 of the wicker chairs; they too are lovely, & slightly wider, but they represent lesser value. however they do finish off the set wonderfully well.the only criticism is with the cushions, they get dirty very quickly even from the rain, & though they can get washed, this is a real nuisance.btw the loungers in the same collection are also different & wonderful. In fact, in short this is THE set to buy for value, individuality & style

So just because we are not at the castle, it doesn’t mean we aren’t doing stuff for the castle. it goes without saying to anyone who knows Andy that every night after dinner he sits down with the construction documents of his laptop and he is designing or figuring out something about the castle. While most of that is in his head and we just get at it when he is ready to share, we have got to see some of the things he is thinking of through his many purchases. he drives alot from customer meeting to customer meeting and if an antique store is on the way, he won’t pass it. Here are just a few of things we have lying around in his library area of the house.

My friend came to my home today, and ((“Dropped”))into my favourite padded sun lounger (luckily,i wasnt on it) anyway, it snapped in half,-now she Didnt say “Sorry”, she just acted like nothing had happened, so,- being the soft person that l am, l went to the toilet,- laughed myself silly, then came out and copied her, acting like nothing had happened. So!, is it” The Norm” to go around breaking chairs? Just wondered? l am Still- “Her friend”- but, my chair,- is still broken. Ha ha ha ha ha, giggle giggle, it Was Funny. lol. NO!, l couldnt laugh with her, she would think l was taking The Mick , because she is heavy. Now Who on here will pay for a new chair?-lol. love jo xx
I have 6 wrought iron bistro chairs outside on my patio that I would like to buy chair pads/cushions for. Most places it seems the cushions are $30 apiece! I think that’s outrageous. Where can I find some that are more reasonable? Keep in mind these need to be outdoor cushions for my patio. Thank you!
