Patio Sense 61908 Faustina Cast Aluminum 3-Piece Bistro Set Two Chairs & Table Lightweight Maintenance Free Outdoor Seating - Antique Bronze Finish

We got this little set to fit on our small apartment balcony. It has exceeded our expectations in every way! It's very pretty (unlike other sets in the same size), much more comfortable than we thought it would be, and sturdy. Also, while the metal is heavy enough to stay put through storms, it is lighter than expected, so it is easy to move the pieces around. Assembly is simple, but be sure to really tighten everything well or else your set may feel wobbly. If you take the time to tighten everything well, it is sturdy! We got a couple pillows for the seats, which are nice if we sit out for a long time, but are honestly not needed. Perfect for coffee or tea on the deck and even dinner for two on our deck. The little shelf between the legs is perfect to keep a citronella candle ready to be used on summer nights when the bugs swarm, too.

I am not good with tools so I got my neighbor to put this together for me and he didn't have a problem. By the time I dragged the box over there and walked across the lawn to my house - he'd put it together. It did seem a bit flimsy to me but that's because I was comparing it to my neighbor's antique older bistro patio set - completely wrought iron. His is gorgeous! But so is mine. My neighbor actually loved mine more than his and wanted to do a fair exchange. I started to do it, but in the end - I decided to keep what I'd bought. I had it planned for a larger patio area - but instead - when I saw how small it is - I decided to put it on my very small, tiny front porch. It's barely a porch but the Patio Sense Faustina Antique Bronze 3-piece - fits perfectly and looks amazing. I've already been out with hot coffee and a cup of hot tea - looking out over my small lawn. So I'm keeping it. I weigh 144 and sit comfortably in the chair. I do plan to buy a cushion for the two chairs just for a bit more - well - cushion. The umbrella stand gives me the option of purchasing a small patio umbrella for sunny days here in the deep South.

Just got it and finished putting it together. Definitely use your own tools. Unless using a wrench (in case you use a socket & ratchet), you want to put the back on first. It's a nice even finish. It doesn't have a cheap look to it, so that's a bonus. There are 2 things I'm not crazy about. There are no nylon glides for the table, the feet are metal to wood/composite contact, and the leg brace is bolted in place with Phillips head bolts rather than blind studs like the table top, and chairs. If you're not going to purchase an umbrella, there is no hole cap included for the center of the table, so you'll need to buy one of those.It looks nice, went together easy, seems sturdy enough, and the wife is happy. I had a hole cap I bought at Ace Hardware for $4.00 that works well.UPDATE: I picked up some soft nylon pads with adhesive backing at Home Depot. The adhesive lasted about 20 seconds after I set the table upright. I cleaned off the adhesive, and set them in place with super glue. The soft nylon pads on the table keeps the table in place, so it isn't sliding everywhere if you put a little pressure on it like resting your arm on the edge of the table. Bought some cushions for the chairs, and it's really looking good now.

225 lb weight limit spec on the chairs, though they held a 275 lb guest at least for a short while without a problem here -- just be aware it could be an issue. Very pretty set for a patio or balcony - looks better in person than in the photos. Could be heavier weight, but for the price it doesn't feel cheap like expected. The pieces take up very little space when the chairs are pushed under the table, while the table is just sturdy enough to be used as a functioning table not merely decoration. Not quite as heavy duty as expected yet would definitely buy again!

I searched for a long time for a bistro set for our small front porch before purchasing this one. I love it! It is the perfect size, it is sturdy, and it looks really nice in a small space like ours. Assembly did not take long at all. It is definitely functional too, I have my morning coffee overlooking the Texan sunrise from this thing every morning!

It's great for inside or out. I actually have one in the kitchen and one on the patio. Nice small size that can fit in a tight space. Beautiful and functional.

The leg joint rusted and broke after a few years.

Looks great. Not particularly heavy weight construction, but seems sturdy.Easy to assemble. I'd recommend using a ratchet to save a lot of time! Well worth the money :-)

A good compact size which works perfectly in my small space adjacent to the balcony. Looks nice, has a bit of that vintage metal furniture look going for it. Happy with product.

This set really looks great in our patio. It added elegance and ambiance to the patio

Beautiful set and easy to assemble. Very sturdy

Very good quality
