In the fully flat position, the lounger is 72.5 inches long, I am over six feet and it felt comfortable, my feet did not hang off the end. Width is 26.5 inches with a seat height without 2.5-inch cushions is 11.75 inches. The capacity is 250 pounds for this lounger.
The lower cushion will have Velcro straps to hold it in place. Each cushion will have a zipper to remove the cover for cleaning.
High Dining set
Price at time article was written: $470.25
This set really caught my eye in the store. The extra height and big tiles on the top looked very rich. This set will have a provision for an umbrella, not included. The chairs will swivel and have a support bar on the legs for your feet to rest on.
Chairs are much like the bistro set, just a little taller. The seat height was still comfortable and the cushion was a great fit. Each chair is 27.25 inches deep, 25.25 inches wide and 45.75 inches tall. The capacity of each chair is 250 pounds.
The table is 40.75 inches square and 38 inches tall. The top frame will hold four 12 inches by 24-inch ceramic tiles. Tiles that are included have a dark wood grain look. Hole in the center of the table will allow an umbrella. Leg support has a provision for umbrella also. Curved legs give this table a rich look.
This is great dining set for a different look. I like the counter height table for that outdoor restaurant look. When sitting at this set, you will think you are at a very rich outdoor space.

Conclusion
This small collection of resin wicker patio sets will fit a lot of small outdoor spaces. If you combine several of these pieces, your outdoor patio will have a rich look. With resin wicker in the seating and back areas for details, this set is not a full wicker set like some. The steel frames will be very sturdy and are powder coated for durability in outdoor conditions.
The cushions are the weak point of this collection. They are square and will be easy to replace if need be. They have zippers so that the covers can be removed and cleaned. I would have a storage area for my cushions when not in use. I do have some storage solutions if you follow this link.

Good description and review of patio sets. High quality pics of different sets. It works well that there is a direct link from the site to the manufacturer’s sales page. You need not hassle with different links.
Keri,
Giving good information and helping people find what works best for them is what this website is about.

In this collection, the conversation set is my favorite. It looks like it would be very practical and useful. Although, you would need a large deck or patio for it. I doubt that it would be useful in my townhouse’s small backyard, but a girl can dream!
Melinda,
What you need is a smaller chat set. This collection does not have one, check out some of my other post in this link with chat sets for smaller spaces.

Good info on the Piper Ridge Resin Wicker Patio Furniture. It’s a good look, and it appears to be well made and sturdy. The price point is reasonable too, which to me is a big consideration. I also like that it is a complete set, so that you can add to it without having to go find something that will match the look. I appreciate your providing the pros and cons of this furniture as well. As a former realtor, I know that a patio with attractive furniture such as this will make the home more appealing to buyers, and for sellers will make it easier to sell.
Tom,
Many local realtors use my furniture ideas to stage their homes for sale. This is a big selling point when you do not have an empty space outside. Show what can fit in an area, it helps people envision what it will look like when they purchase their home.

Sarah,

I have been looking for a bistro set for my wife and I to sit out on our balcony. Those look like they are really sturdy, having a steel frame. I also like the fact that they swivel.
How well does the resin wicker hold up to the sun? The balcony I plan on placing it on is in full sun all day.
Jeff,
The resin wicker holds up well in the sun. The color is molded into the plastic, it does not tend to fade. The cushions will have to be stored when not in use, they will fade and wet weather will do them no good.
Check out some of my shade options, follow this link, to cut down on the sun your set gets, it will make your outside more of a pleasure to use.

Great review and very informative. I’m actually in the market for some curb appeal. I love the Conversation set. Thank you!
Davona,
Having a conversation set in your outdoor space will give you a place for conversations and drinks after work. This a great set for small groups.
John
Is it possible to get a high dining set with two chairs and smaller table . We just love the five set but is to large for our balcony . Thanks .
A J,
I have written an article about high bistro sets. These only have two chairs and a smaller table. They are made for smaller outdoor areas and several have the swivel chairs of the Piper Ridge set. None will have the tile inserts.
