Valita 3-Piece Outdoor PE Rattan Furniture Set - Black Wicker Patio Conversation Sofa with Khaki Cushions | Weather-Resistant PE Rattan Loveseat & Sectional Couch for Garden, Poolside, and Backyard Relaxation

I was a little leery when I ordered this, having seen a few complaints by people who said it was difficult to assemble or smaller than expected or that the cushions were super thin. I have been pleasantly surprised.It arrived ahead of schedule, and went together pretty easily. I did use my own ratcheting socket wrench and allen screwdriver attachments because the supplied tool, while it worked, did make the process slow and painful for my poor old arthritic hands.There were a few times when I was quite sure that "screw A" was NOT going to fit into "hole B" as instructions said they would, but every single time this happened, it was my own fault for having looked at the drawings upside-down or something similar. I was actually rather surprised at how well lined up all of the various holes and such were, and at how actually sturdy the set feels once assembled. I've put together a lot of cheap furniture in my day, including IKEA stuff, which is sort of the benchmark, and this was very possibly the most well executed product I've encountered. I'm a little "challenged" when it comes to interpreting instructional drawings and this time was no exception, but this set of instructions was as good as any I've encountered.So, yes, the cushions are thin relative to some you can buy. I still find them comfortable and firm. I like the "slip resistant" fabric on the bottom of the cushions, which helps, but doesn't completely prevent the cushions from moving as I shift positions. I suppose its presence does mean I can't flip the cushion over if my cat barfs on it (covers are removeable for washing) but a friend of mine has a set with "flippable" cushions that are thicker and those things slide all OVER the place. If I had it do over, I'd keep what I have. The cushions that go with the back-rest pillows are a little soft and squishy for my taste (gotta use at least 2 for support) but a person can certainly add more pillows acquired from elsewhere and the color I chose is easy enough to coordinate with.Yes, the set is pretty small, but in my case, it works perfectly for the space I have and the number of people (2 max) who will be using it. The measurements are clearly stated in the product description and they are accurate. As mentioned earlier, the set feels very sturdy and I've been entirely comfortable taking a nap on it, squirming around while trying to get into a comfy position to work on my current crochet project AND see the painted buntings at the feeder just outside my lanai. I feel like it's a little low to the ground, but not enough to be a problem -- again, in my case, it works perfectly for my space, my windows, my cats' viewing pleasure, etc.The only real criticism I have is that I wish it was possible to assemble the set as a mirror image, or to order a mirror image version. I really wanted to set this up with the shorter piece positioned where the longer piece is, but that's not possible without doing a LOT of "this will invalidate your warranty" -type alterations. I had to re-arrange other items in the space differently than what I wanted to do to make this work. However, as I've been using it, the layout as it stands hasn't caused me any problems, I just would have preferred it set up the other way. (But honestly, if that's the most I have to complain about....) Anyway, I'm very pleased, and yes, I'd recommend, but I'd also say to pay attention to the information that is provided and decide if it's what will work for you.
