We purchased 3 of these sets. Two with the benches and one with the chairs. Complete disappointment. Initially I was disappointed because the tables are so small in comparison to the benches and chairs. The benches are actually longer than the tables and the tables are so short the chairs cannot be tucked under them. The tables are also very lightweight and flimsy. After having used the furniture for a period of only four months they are completely falling apart. Two of the three tables have split in the exact same location and one of the benches split and splintered when my 70 pound nine-year-old was sitting on it. One of the tables is extremely wobbly. I would include pictures but Macy's does not allow that on their reviews. We have ordered furniture from Macy's many times in the past and always had an excellent experience. Unfortunately this has been a completely disappointing experience.
