Some bits were a little tricky/fiddly to assemble, but it looks so good once it’s done. Very happy. Took an age to review it because I’ve only just recently moved from an apartment to a house and obviously needed a garden to put this is lol.
Other garden seats I have had need bringing in in winter and covering from rain in summer. Not a good look on the patio. I bought a small Ketter set about ten years ago and it still looks like new, having been left outside all year without covers. So I purchased the four seater and coffee table set this time and it is perfect. The curves look good rather than the square boring design, and you can see it, no horrid black covers flapping in the wind.
pleased with the set,takes while to assemble,but worth it. the only annoying thing is the little covers at rear to cover bolts dont fit well and keep popping off
This is a great product , really sturdy , weatherproof , follow the instructions and it’s relatively easy to build , we had a piece missing , but a quick email to Keter and it was sent , so all in all it is a great product , so hopefully it will give years of pleasure
Didn’t like the plastic screws you can easily over tighting and shredding the threads
Having had a keter corfu table for years with no fade and as good as it was new, I knew this set is going to last
Built two sets in 3 hours ,once you know how one chair is put together it’s very simple and the others follow suit ,had spare parts at the end too so if any go I can repair
Very impressed and above all ,know they going to last !! unlike others sets I’ve had which rot from the inside out and costed twice as much
Ordered this on Sunday night arrived 8.30 this morning…videos said can be assembled in 1 hour 2 hours max ..1st chair took me an hour to assembled due to searching thru the 3 bags of fittings. 2nd chair took me 30 mins and table 10 mins …still to build up 2 seater …it feels sturdy enough…still to check for weather proof…all in all seems good value fir money
Although this item looks good, the plastic clips keep popping out of the back of the sofa, one of which has gone missing.
Have tried contacting Keter to get a replacement but seems impossible to do so.
This was my second purchase of a Keter garden furniture set, the first being 2 years ago, as our family is extending. The range looks great and is very comfortable to sit in. The original set has also weathered very well during Winters with just a light wash down required each Spring. I store the cushions in a Keter Citybox (purchased separately) which has kept cushions dry and protected over the Winter. A great addition to a patio or deck area which looks great and is fairly straightforward to construct. Allow approx 2 hours for a full set construction if DIY is not your thing or if you’re constructing solo. My teens though built this in an hour.
We saw these while on holiday and thought they looked really sturdy, got home, fathomed out which one it was and looked online and saw lots of different prices ranging from 429 to 499 so had a look at some on Amazon and left it at that, got a marketing email saying the price had dropped to 284 so placed the order, was a bit concerned until it arrived thinking I’d be getting part of the set and not all but no two delivery guys carried a large and heavy box full through the house and into the garden for us, we assembled it last night, it is fiddly so best to lay out so that you have everything you need for each piece, start with the table as that is easy then the sofa by the time you get to the chairs they will be a doddle. When assembled it is sturdy and strong, comfortable to sit on with or without the cushions and look pretty darn good so highly recommend.
Arrived in a timely manner. Took me quite a few hours to assemble it though. Part of the reason is that the bolts are not as well marked as they should be. There was a lot of removing and putting back again. However it is not rocket science and you should be good to go in a couple of hours. They come with cushions as well which are sturdy if not the most comfortable in the world. Ive had my product now for a couple of years. It has withstood the elements and the british weather so Ill give them props there. They are quite easy to clean as well and just a wet cloth should be able to get rid of all the dust and smudges that have accumulated on it.
Received this yesterday, I managed to put it up in around 4 hours with the help of my 9 year old son who as a lego master builder found the instructions easy to follow. I liked how there was no need for screws or allan keys etc it all slots into place. It is plastic so does slight warp on the table but can live with that for the price. It looks nice when up and had some lovely compliments. I am 5’2″ and 8 and half stone woman I’m only saying this to give people an idea of how easy it is to assemble!
Well, first off, it is NOT Rattan, it is a completely plastic product that certainly looks like Rattan, but it should be sold as ‘Rattan Style’ as it is not the woven material.
However, it is 100% solid, will be weather proof for years & I can see why they offer a three year guarantee.
Assembly is pretty simple although the instructions could have more detailed pictures, especially for the one tricky part which is joining the two chairs to make the couch. The design & putting the chairs together is very clever & all parts (+ spares) and the required spanner/tool are there.
I got them as deal of the day for 185. It was worth a bargain.
I’m extremely surprised about the intelligent design and quality. So many small parts yet no tools needed.
So light yet so sturdy.
So beautiful that I’m planning to use them even indoors if needed. Matches our indoor DSF leather sofa set. So when more guests come this light beautiful sturdy piece of outdoor furniture can also be moved in.
Assembly was enjoyable one person’s job. Not difficult at all if you have a mind who likes solving riddles.
Make one single seat sofa first carefully by watching the pictures on instructions. That takes a little time. Once it’s done the others are piece of cake as you will so exactly the same steps again.
Pieces are small and fit in nicely. You don’t need your own tools. Be careful when fitting small pieces because if you miss one piece you may have to open again to fit in the missing piece which can break the item. They have given some extra small pieces as well in case something breaks.
Love it. Very comfortable seats and sturdy.
Even though I had read other reviews it hadn’t sunk in that this set really is all plastic! Yup, every single bit, moulded plastic made to look like rattan and plastic nuts and bolts. Initially I was disappointed, the bits and pieces looked cheap and I had low expectations for the finished set but actually it looks pretty good, feels sturdy and there is no fear of the inner frame rusting. If it gets dirty we’ll just hose it down, we can be quite rough with a brush, it’s not going to get caught in the weaving. It’s not easy peasy to put together but it’s fairly straightforward and all the bolts fit perfectly. It’s comfortable and looks good and taking everything into consideration, we’re pleased with it. I’ve added cushions for back support.
Now the assembly of each item of furniture can be a little fiddly at times and took a couple of hours to fully assemble. Take care not to over tighten the bolts/screws as they will shear, but dont worry if you do snap a bolt as the manufacturer graciously provides a few extra pieces and also a couple of plastic tools which are really effective. May I say that all of the securing points were perfectly aligned and easy to ‘snap-and-click’ into place.
The overall look of the fully assembled furniture is good for the price paid. More importantly my wife and family love it. The seat covers are relative thin but well made and comfortable to sit on. Overall the furniture is of really good quality for the price paid. My wife and I are extremely pleased with the furniture and we look forward to some balmy summer evenings sitting in the garden with a a glass, or two of wine? I therefore have no hessitation in highly recommending this set of garden furniture.
It is ALL plastic as described. You need strong hands to build, it isn’t just simple ‘click into place’ but has plastic screws and plastic ‘plugs’, etc. It really hurt my fingers and by the end I had scrapes, cuts and bruises.
It had a couple of extra screws thankfully as I snapped 2! It also had 2 plastic alum-keys/screwdrivers, which was also brilliant as I broke 1! lol.
I have not even sat on it yet or used it so can’t comment on its comfort.
So far so good. I got it when it was discounted and glad I did as I wouldn’t pay full price for it.
We bought the Keter Corfu lounge set just over two and a half years ago. Assembling the sofa, two chairs and table was straightforward once we’d found the orange spanner and cleaned any surplus flash from the openings with a penknife so that it clicked together easily. Assembly instructions were nice and clear. This is a comfortable and much admired coffee set which still looks smart. We keep the cushions in a Keter Borneo chest so they are always to hand. The set remains outside in all weathers, it isn’t covered as it doesn’t need it and is now on its third winter without any problems, come the spring we give it a good clean with soap and water and a brush and it is as good as new. The only issues we have noticed is that the click-in covers to hide the bolts tend to come out and the coffee table gains a puddle on the top; really strong winds can move it around but we tend to put it in a corner of our patio to stop that. I’m pleased we bought it and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending it.
Very pleased with this set especially as we got it on ‘Deal of the Day’ for 129. It arrived very quickly and is surprisingly sturdy. I’m not sure how anyone managed to put it all together in an hour, my flat pack hating husband took nearer 5 doing it on his own. Like others have mentioned, the plastic screw covers on the backs of the seats pop off every time someone sits on a seat, which is really annoying. Also the cushions are very inferior. They are very thin and have already started to go out out shape after a day. Still, for the price I paid I’m mor than happy Couriers were excellent keeping us well informed of delivery status both by text and phone call on day of delivery.
1- took a while to assemble several hours in-fact – but once a chair was complete the rest was much easier
2 – the assembly tool is not in the packaging but on the side of the inner box with the smaller parts – you can easily miss these so look out for these.
3- the only main issue is to the end pieces to the chair arms- these were damaged during the moulding process and wouldn’t fit! – I had to modify these to be suitable, in one case softening the plastic to form it clear of the obstruction when inserted into the arm – the other was deformed too much – this was to the inner rib holding some of the ejection detail – I had to cut this away to prevent it interfering –
only having plastic product design experience and realising the the issues with these end pieces – any other person would have had an issue fitting something to be aware of –
The parts are many and quite daunting so be patient – the end product looks good assembled- just waiting for some good weather!
the delivery was excellent I must add – very friendly and quick
If you asked me would I assembly another – for me No life’s too sho
Bought this through Amazon from Garden Store Direct and they are a very reliable, quality customer service oriented company. The set was delivered very quickly and the set up is extremely easy. Assembling the foot covers to the set takes a bit of muscle but other than that it was easy. A minor inconvenience that could have turned into a big one was that a crucial part to assembling/joining the 2 seater together was missing. As the box was sealed it is more of a Keter issue than a seller issue. However, I was able to email the seller and they were wonderful in immediately sending out a replacement for that part. Also, I had ordered it in cream cushions but grey ones came in but they delivered the cream ones out with the part and i was able to have it before a party i had in my garden. The set itself is extremely robust and good looking. Quality as with all Keter products I have purchased is the best out there. I can not see this braking, moulding, or discolouring anytime soon. So much better than actual rattan for the UK weather.
Wow…. What a great set of garden furniture…! It came in one large box which was a surprise given it contained 2 x chars a sofa and table. There was some damage to the packaging but the delivery man checked the contents and took pictures before he left which was good. The first chair took me 45 mins to put together on my own but I was a lot quicker with everything else. I had some fittings spare which worried me as other reviews had stated they had pieces missing but I was definitely sent extra bits…! I am delighted with the finished product and have used it several times already. It is sturdy and looks fabulous whilst being light enough to move around with ease. The only negative feedback I have is that the pieces supplied to cover the fixings in the back of the chairs some keep popping out but it’s not a big deal personally. I love my garden furniture and would recommend without hesitation to anyone thinking of buying….. Nothing else comes close on value for money.
**May-2016 Up-Date:**
This set has lived outside now for over two years 🙂 It’s still holding together nice and strong & has weathered fairly well. Sadly, although it has been moved around numerous times, all the ‘right-hand- arms have faded from the sun… but not the left side arms as you can see from the pictures! The table shows no fading whatsoever.
All in all I am still so very satisfied with this set… just sad about the fading !

I got a txt telling me when it would be delivered, and it arrived on time 🙂
The delivery men even tool the box round the back onto my patio for me, very helpful 🙂
It took us just over 2 hours to put it together, and it wasn’t too difficult. There were a couple of fiddly bits, but with the help of a screwdriver to help pull them in, it was fine.
Just a little advice, as we were putting it up outside, we found it best to have something to lay the pieces on so that they didn’t get marked from the slabs.
It does need two people to put it up, as you will need to hold things in place whilst you screw the bolts into place.
All in all a good quality well made set which I am very pleased with, well worth the money.
Now to review the product, I am very impressed with the lounge set, Keter have a very good product with this item, very easy to put together. It took myself and my partner 1 to 2 hours to put together, not rushing. The item is very sturdy, comfortable and very well suited to the purpose of which it is intended. All the parts including the screws are all plastic, so don’t over tighten them. The cushions are covered in very durable fabric, what you would expect for this type of item. The feet on the furniture are perfect for decking as they are square based so no digging into the decking or scraping if dragged. The feet are perfect for any surface grave, slabs, grass. Each piece of furniture is easy to move not very heavy and easily picked up by one person. I love this lounge set, a really great edition to our garden. Would recommend this item to any one.
I love these seats!!!
I needed new garden seats and table as my old wooden set was ten years old and looked it. When we thought about it we realised we rarely sat at the table eating and that we moved the chairs so we could sit and talk. This set meets our needs and is comfortable.
One word of warning….. The box that this arrives in is HUGE so make sure you have somewhere to keep it between delivery and building. In terms of building it took me and my 13 year old son two hours from start to finish. The table only took three minutes as it is five pieces that fit together. All the pieces are solid plastic and there are some tools for building included. All parts are clearly marked and we built each seat on the lid of the box to avoid any scratches.
I keep the cushions just inside the back door in the utility room and sit outside for 10-15 minutes each night with a coffee after tea. The whole family love them. They are very solid and I am hoping they will last as long as my previous set.
