Leaves, pollen and grit work their way under a glass tabletop and stay there. On most patio tables the glass is stuck down with suckers, so cleaning underneath means wrestling it free and finding somewhere flat to rest it.

The maker describes the coffee table glass here as removable and thick, and says it is easy to clean. Lifting it is part of the design rather than something you do carefully and hope.

Six pieces, one L

Two corner sofas, two armless middles, an ottoman and a coffee table. Set as an L with the ottoman out at one end, the arrangement gives four upright seats plus somewhere to stretch out.

Sizes, and the printed contents

Corner sofas are 30 in square and 26 in tall, armless middles 26 in wide and 30 in deep, the ottoman 30 in square at 17 in, and the coffee table 26 in square at 13 in. The seat sits 17 in from the ground, the same as the ottoman.

Four inches, and a zip

High resilience sponge measured at 4 in, under a cover that unzips for rinsing. On a woven base that thickness is the difference between sitting comfortably and feeling the frame after twenty minutes.

Four ways to set it out

The maker draws the set as an L, as a straight run with the ottoman apart, as two facing groups, and as separate chairs. The seat clips then fix whichever pairs need to stay together.

The maker lists clips that fix two pieces of sofa together, which most sets leave you to source.

Thick tempered glass on the 26 in coffee table, meant to lift off for cleaning.

High resilience sponge with zipped covers on the seats and backs.

30 in square and 17 in high, matching the seats so it extends them level.

At the base of the steel frames, to cut friction and stop the pieces slipping.

So the L can close at either end, or both, depending on the deck.

Higher than most outdoor lounge frames, which makes standing up easier.

Over a solid steel frame, which the maker credits for the load bearing.

Four upright seats plus an ottoman needs real space, and the two corner pieces let the L follow the boundary.

A glass top designed to lift off is a small thing that matters every few weeks in a garden.

The supplied seat clips hold the pairs that need to stay put, so the run stops creeping.

What we stand behind

• Sizes and the cushion thickness come from the record's specification block and the maker's dimension panel.
• The maker states clearly that the white pillow shown in the photographs is not included, and that is repeated here.
• This record also carries a paragraph describing a nine piece dining set with an umbrella hole. That text belongs to another product and is ignored.
• Ships from our United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.
• 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

Are the white pillows included?

No. The record says so plainly: white pillow not included. The cushions that come with the set are the blue seat and back cushions.

What do the seat clips do?

They fix two pieces of sofa together at the join so the run holds its line. With six pieces there are several joins, and the clips cover the ones that carry the most movement.

Is there a dining table in this set?

No. Part of this listing's text describes a nine piece dining set with an umbrella hole, which belongs to a different product. This order is two corner sofas, two armless sofas, an ottoman and a coffee table.

How high is the seat?

17 in from the ground, and the ottoman is built to the same height. That is taller than most outdoor lounge seating, so getting up is less of an effort.
