Summary: Excellent Value, Beautiful Product! 2008-09-11
Comment: A month ago I received the Strathwood Falkner 2 Seater Deep Lounge Sofa, the Strathwood Falkner Lounge Deep Seat Arm Chairs, the coffee table and the set of three nesting tables. I wanted to use the set for a few weeks before submitting this review.
First of all, the delivery experience was amazing. Each item was shipped to my door within a week and required no assembly. (Suggestion: when unpacking this set, use scissors to cut through all the plastic tape, then all the foam/paper wrapping rips right off. I came very close to scratching the finish when I attempting using a utility knife to free my sofa!)
The frames are lightweight, yet are very sturdy. When the cushions are put away for the winter, the snow will not damage this set because it cannot build up due to the slats. They're easy to keep clean, completely functional and beautiful. I still cannot get over the value.
In regard to the infamous white cushions...I was attracted to them for two main reasons. I knew that whatever color or pattern toss pillows I could dream-up, they'd look fabulous and because the cushions cannot fade-out in the sun! HOWEVER, Holy Mackerel are these things dirt-magnets. If I ever get them clean again I'll use a product such as scotchguard to protect them.
Today I attempted to unzip the covers to wash them. I was disenchanted upon making the discovery (duh on my part) that the decorative button inhibits the removal of the covers since it's fastened to the bottom. My scissors are just about ready to make the snip.
My solution? I just ordered replacement cushions that are not white and that have no buttons. I justified the purchase by telling myself that the entire set plus replacement cushions is still much less of an investment than any other deep seating set that I considered. Plus I truly prefer this design over anything else I've seen. Overall, I'd highly recommend this set.

Summary: Great piece at great price 2008-06-03
Comment: I ordered this item based on its reviews and the reviews of chairs and 3-seater sofa on amazon.
I bought a 2-seater sofa, 1 set of 2 armchairs, 2 ottomans, 2 side tables and 1 coffee table.
Every item has exceeded my expectation. Since this is a review space for 2 seater sofa, let me say something about that item.
About the Sofa (and the ottomans):
-- Very nice weight. I got it set up just few hours back. Today I stopped by Crate and Barrel and saw their outdoor aluminum that looks similar. Not only did the set look less roomy, but also it felt flimsier. Their cushions are thinner.
-- Powder coating is of good quality. It does get hot in the sun however; and since I have a baby I will need to protect her.
-- Cushions are a bit on the firmer side. Once again, I found them to be better supportive than Crate and Barrel. I have sat on another line from Restoration H; and these cushions are comparable. I have read reviews on the falkner line from others, that cushions are bad. Either I have no taste in cushions or they got lemons; for I indeed do think my cushions are nice. However, I plan to compare with RH cushions one more time.
-- Cushion color is nice; but they would get dirty. This, I had read before, but I "understood" as soon as I looked at these. I am looking into applying fabric protector.
-- The cushions are zippered and velcroed. Nice touch.
-- I will post a review when I wash my cushions for the first time, if I do, w/o fabric protector.
-- This set is finished very well. At $1100 for the entire set I would not call it a bargain however definitely best value for money from all that I considered!! Yes, quality-wise, it is comparable to other retailer and is indeed at a fraction of the cost.
**PS: My 4-stars because, I will need to run around protecting the fabric etc and therefore some loose ends remain. **

Summary: Pleasantly surprized 2008-05-31
Comment: Received my outdoor furniture today. I have been looking a year for outdoor furniture that is reasonably priced and of good quality. I can't beleive I found and ordered it online. Excellent quality frame, cushions are thick and firm. Pay attention to the dimensions, this set is bigger than you might think. Very deep seating, but by putting a chair and ottoman together it's like a chaise lounge. I agree with the other reviews the color is on the peachy beige side as opposed to the whiter look online. One of the best sets I've seen for the price. Came assembled and packaged nicely.
Great job Amazon!!!!

Summary: Great frame cushions not so great 2008-05-18
Comment: This is a great piece of lounging patio furniture. It sits low and deep. I agree with the other reviewers that the frame is not black and the cushions are not white but off white. The cushions are okay but I will probably replace them with something else. But the sofa frame is really what I was looking for - a comfortable piece of furniture for me and my cats to hang out and chill.

Summary: Aluminum base is great, cushions are not 2008-04-08
Comment: I've purchased a few pieces of this Strathwood Falkner set. I received 2 of the dining chairs before I received this 2 Seater.
The Good - The aluminum base is sturdy and good-looking and looks like it will last. And the design is beautiful.
The not so good -
The base is not black as stated, but a dark brown/gray. I prefer this color over black, but not so good for someone trying to match black.
The cushions leave a lot to be desired. First, they aren't even near the color or fabric as on the dining chairs. The fabric on the dining chairs is a thin basic smooth off-white canvas type material. The cushions on the 2 seater are almost light peachy yellow in color and a more tweed, textured material. I did think that at least the cushions would all match! And the quality is only so so on the cushions.
The sizing is not quite as stated. I am putting this in a small space and every inch counts. It says it's 29 inches deep but put flush against the wall it comes out 33 inches.
I would buy this again but I would plan to replace the cushions.
