The design is unique and I love the matte black color of the table. I very much dislike brown outdoor furniture and glass-top tables so I was happy when I came across this set. However, it’s smaller than I anticipated. The width of the table is not the width of any other outdoor table I have seen. The table is just a smidge taller than normal tables, which could be uncomfortable while eating. The chairs are very narrow, which could be an issue for larger persons. Assembly was fairly simple and everything is much sturdier than I thought it would be because the metal is lightweight. I definitely do not feel the price is right for this set. This is NOT a 1,200 (taxes incl.) set. I have seen far better options for hundreds less. I decided to keep it because I put it together and completely demolished the shipping boxes before the size was visible and to put everything back into the original packaging and eat the shipping cost was too much of a hassle. My strong advice is to really consider the size of chairs and table before purchase.
