QUALITY and VALUE!!
High QUALITY!! Amazing VALUE!! I cannot speaking highly enough of this value packed patio set!! Love seat, TWO chairs and a coffee table for under $250. High-end feel, and super comfy!! Easy to assemble!! You need a little leverage to get seat (frame) to fit on back (frame) but it's designed right for a perfect fit!

Wrong assembly instructions and hardware!
As of right now I am not very happy with my purchase. The box was destroyed when my set arrived. I opened it up and amazingly nothing is broken. I find the assembly instructions and they are not the right ones for this set. So now I doubt I have the right hardware to assemble my set! I am not very happy. I should have taken a picture of the box that it all came in too.

    Good choice.
    I like. East set up. The cushions are good quality and thick. I would purchase again. Love the shade of green. (I didn't set up or use the table yet)

    I would recommend
    It's really nice and so far seems to be sturdy but you never know until you have it for the summer so I will update at end of summer or before if it's doesn't hold up.

    Great look
    I liked the price and the color. I also liked that it came with a love seat, 2 chairs, and coffee table. The Pillows aren't as thick as I'd like them to be but for the price, I'll take it. I don't like is that there aren't multiple steal steal railings to hold up the cushions. So I hopefully this set last long enough to get my money's worth. Overall, it's still a keeper.

    Love this
    Way sturdier and much bigger seating area that I expected. The color is more like a reddish orange, but it's all good. Now I'm looking for an outdoor dining set to go with it.

    Be aware
    I ordered the green, they are beautiful with a reasonable price. Unfortunately I can only assemble one chair out of the four pieces. Ordered a replacement because I do really like that set . Haven't get that yet as they emailed me the replacement going to be delayed.

    Poor workmanship. doesn't stand up.
    i purchased this patio set less than a year ago in May 2022 its Now April 2023 and 2 of the chairs have broken while someone has been seated in them (luckily no one was seriously injured). However that is no excuse for the poor workmanship of the product. I work hard to buy decent things and budget to get things i have and then to have things like this happen only after less than a year is frusterating. i would not recommend purchasing this item.

    Be aware of the alignment issues
    This is a nice set for me for the time being until I can afford to get the set I really want! It seems nice and heavy and seems like it will hold up in weather, however, it is under a covered deck that won't get wet. I will say, some of the other reviews are spot on when talking about the alignment issues! OMGG! I had to get help from my husband w/the holes not lining up properly! Very poor manufacturing! Other than that, the set is nice and fits perfectly on our deck! Pics are included!

    Wouldve been nice, but...
    First there was a little confusion about how to out this set together, some of the pieces didn't fit... We got past that then put it all together and realized the chairs wobbled, the legs were uneven. We tried to look beyond that and then not even a week later the cushion rips on the two seater. The cushions weren't even comfortable when you sit on them, they felt thin. We tried to call customer service an they had some of the items we needed on backorder. They couldn't even say when the items would be back in stock. So we opted to return the set to Walmart. We wanted to give this patio set a chance but the longevity of this product was too questionable.

    Disappointment
    Metal frame furniture with a flimsy canvas bottom for the chairs and loveseat. Seriously!? What would it have cost you to put a couple of metal bars or some sort of metal mesh for the seat bottom instead of using what has to be one of the cheapest, most tear-prone materials you could find…for metal furniture!

    Bought this set for my back patio. Love it! Was delivered right to my house. It was so easy to put together. My son and I put it together in an hour. Cushions are compfy. I have a red brick ranch and the red goes very well! Great buy for me! Love sitting out on my patio in the evenings and on the weekends. Just so wonderful!

    My happy cute new patio furniture!
    I read a lot of reviews before buying this set... a bunch of them were negative... a bunch were positive. I took a chance that it would be okay. It came one day later than expected. The box was beat pretty bad by FedEx, but everything inside was ok. It was a really big awkward heavy box so I actually left it on my walkway and unpacked it right there to bring it in. I assembled it in my living room. It was a super easy assembly. Everything was packed in plastic and bubble wrap and I couldn't find any damage from shipping. It went together pretty painlessly. I think I took maybe an hour or hour and a half to put it all together. They included extra hardware and a ratchet thing to tighten all the hex screws, which I thought was super helpful. The only tool you need is a Phillips screwdriver. I put it on my patio and so far love it. I kinda almost fell asleep sitting on the loveseat last night watching the sunset. Yes it's cheap outdoor furniture... but it's comfy and I'm super happy with it so far. I didn't want to spend a ton on outdoor furniture so was thrilled to only pay $175 for a nice set. I'll include pictures so you can see everything. I just thought that if people are reading reviews they should see pictures with one positive review so that you know what you're getting. oh. If you buy it be prepared for lots and lots of bubble wrap and plastic and cardboard to throw out. The only thing I wish they'd done or specified differently in the instructions was which chairs the cushions go to. The cushions for the loveseat and chairs are slightly different sizes... took me a few minutes to figure out which should go on which. I do love the red cushions. :) so it won't let me upload most of my pictures. It says they have to be smaller than 5mb and I guess mine are mostly bigger than that... so you don't get to see the unpacking process of the box and assembly of it all.

    Good, but....
    Had to return because of shipping damage. The low score is because when I was putting the chairs together, they did not sit level. When I was about to see what needed to be done, I discover the damage. They looked good and I feel that I could have made them sit level. It's wintertime here now, going to wait till spring and buy a set when they have them in stock.

    awesome
    really beautiful. Got green. I could do assembling alone in 1 hour. pillows are big enough and thick enough. i thought they are small. But very sturdy. whole set looks sturdy and hope they stay sturdy for a long time. I am using it in my living room and it adds perfect ambience.

    Excellent value and great size
    I had been looking for a new patio set for our Palm Desert home when my patience was rewarded when I found this 4-piece group. Installation was no problem at all and took 2 hours. The set is very solid (I am a 200-lb man), as well as gives a chic look in a smaller size (though it is still full size). I didn't want a flimsy rattan-style one, and this hit all the points. I got the green, which is an avocado color. My only ding against it is that the bottom cushions are narrower than the backs. Otherwise, highly recommend for the price point especially.

    Beautiful with a slight flaw
    This is our second Mainstay Patio Conversation Set. Out first one we bought almost 10 years ago and it held up so well that we bought a second set for a new home - the first set is by the outfire place and the second one on our back porch. Set was very easy to put together (a little time consuming, but I did all myself in one afternoon) and the cushions are very comfortable. Had to ding the star rating as one of the armrest/foot side pieces arrived without a plastic cap. Thank goodness it is on the arm and not the foot end so our loveseat does not wobble, but a replacement would be ideal. I won't send the whole thing back after the time I spend putting it together, but **HINT - HINT** I would gladly accept a replacement and add a fifth star.

    Better than expected
    I purchased this set for my screened in porch. It took me about 2 hours to put together by myself. The I set was packed really well, the instructions pretty easy and the bolts needed separated and marked. Now for the set itself, very sturdy and a little larger than what the picture shows or my porch is smaller than I thought :). However I made it work. Pieces are not too heavy, but are sturdy once you get it put together. Cushions are ok, so I am thinking I may purchase some thicker ones. Overall very impressive set. I have put a picture of the set in this review right after putting it together.

    Good Value
    This came in one big box with lots of assembly. For the price, I was not surprised by that. I am a relatively small (although fit) female and put it all together by myself in about two hours or so, with many interruptions by my three young kids. My only struggle was with the legs for the table. I COULD NOT get the screws to screw into the threads. I tried a couple of the screws in a couple different legs and could not get them, so decided to wait for my husband to get home. He said a couple were tough but others were not, so maybe I just got unlucky. If I did not have him to help, I thought maybe a drill would work, but I did not try that. Overall, this furniture looks nice and fits our porch. Exactly what we were hoping for at a great price!

    Love, love, love this set
    The pieces were easy to assemble, but some screws/bolts were missing on the settee. I recommend you assemble it on a day that you have time to run to the hardware store for a replacement screw or bolt. It is lightweight but sturdy and comfortable. The red is a nice color, not scarlet, not burgundy, just a true red. I would buy it all over again if I had another deck or porch. I added pillows to dress it up.
