What do you get in the box
Two chairs, a coffee table, and a love seat will come in the box for this set. The frames of the set will be made from steel with a blue powder-coated finish. The top of the coffee table is a galvanized steel plate with the sides turned down and riveted for the industrial look.
Seating pieces will have statted seating and backs, you can use this set without the cushions, your buns will not care for it after a short time. Gray cushions will be used for the seats and back for long term sitting.
The cushions will have polyester fiberfill with Olefin fabric covers. The Olefin fabric is one of the best for outdoor patio furniture, it will still need a storage solution to last more than a few years in outdoor conditions.
The coffee table will have four straight legs, one at each corner, that are painted the same blue powder-coated finish as the seating pieces. The top is galvanized material that will take outdoor conditions very well with little upkeep.
This set will fit in a smaller outdoor area that is at least 6 feet by 8 feet. The love seat is 45 inches wide, 29 inches deep, and 34 inches tall. The two chairs are the same with only being 23 inches wide for one butt. With the industrial top, the coffee table is a standard size at 40 inches long, 20 inches wide, and 20 inches tall.
This set is rather lightweight at 28 pounds for the love seat, 19 pounds for each chair and a hefty 26 pounds for the coffee table. The weight will make this set easy to move or store if needed for just one regular-sized person.
Assembly and care of your patio furniture
Assembly of this patio set can be done by one person if they have some mechanical skills, if not you may need an assistant.
Seats and backs of the seating pieces will need to be attached to the arms one at a time with the enclosed hardware. Some of the brackets were damaged in shipping, may need to look at this area before starting your assembly. Add the cushions and you are ready to sit.
The coffee table will only need to add the four legs to the top with the proper hardware. For the average person, this set should only take a half hour to assemble.
Care of your patio furniture should be to just use a mild soap and water mixture to clean all metal parts. Do not use any harsh chemicals, such as a glass cleaner, they contain things that will cause the powder-coated finish to fade and peel.
One other recommendation to make to get your patio furniture to stay looking like new is to use good car wax on it once a year. This will protect your painted surfaces against rust or corrosion. Clean your furniture and apply the wax as you would on your car.
