So far, so good.. I really like this set. Putting it together is easy but definitely tedious. There’s no issues with the sturdiness. And I love the look of it. Overall i’m happy with this purchase.Update: Want to give a little more in-depth review. I’ve had this set for almost a year now. When I purchased it I saw quite a few reviews about rust that made me hesitant to get this. But I can happily say after a lot of rain, and 5 months of cold weather it’s held up great. No rust.And the best advice I can give is when you’re putting it together, LOOSE FIT everything. If you tighten it as you go the holes will not line up. Put the whole chair together first and then tighten everything down.The only issue i had with it when it arrived was a bent bracket. But it was very easy to bend back by hand and fit perfectly after that.After a year I’m still very happy with this product.
