3 Piece Patio Wicker Bistro Set, 2 Chairs Rated 400 lb with Cream Cushions and a 28 in Glass Top Table

Cream on grey

Pale fabric against grey wicker is the combination that reads warm without going beige. On a covered porch it looks like indoor furniture; in open sun it needs the cover taken off and washed more often.

The panel, in two units

This maker publishes in centimetres for this colourway: chair 85 cm tall, 61 cm wide, 63 cm deep, seat at 42 cm. Table 50 cm square, 71 cm high. In inches that is 33.5 in, 24 in, 25 in, a 16.5 in seat and a 20 in top at 28 in. Capacities read 180 kg and 45 kg.

Three things holding it up

A ring brace tying the four table legs together low down, a metal frame under the wicker, and adjustable pads under the feet. The pads are the part you will be glad of on old patio slabs.

Glass, and what it is for

A tempered top at dining height with room for a board and a bottle. Glass wipes in one pass; a woven top does not.

Twenty eight inches high with a 20 in square glass top. That is dining height, about a foot above the 16.5 in seat, so a plate sits where a plate should.

Published by the maker beside a 100 lb figure for the tabletop on the same drawing.

Four splayed legs braced by a reinforced circular ring near the floor, which is what stops a tall narrow table from racking.

Screw pads under each leg. On flagstones or old decking they take out the rock without a folded beer mat.

The seat and back covers come off. The maker's own instruction on this listing is to keep the cushions dry, which is worth following.

The wicker is a mixed grey on every colourway here, so the cushion is the only thing that changes between them.

Ships from a Canadian warehouse. Free shipping on orders over $150. Some remote areas, PO boxes and surcharge regions may be excluded or cost extra.

Covered directly by the manufacturer under their warranty terms for material and manufacturing defects.

A 28 in table is the height you can actually work or eat at. A 16 in patio coffee table means holding the plate. This is the difference between a set you sit near and one you use.

Two chairs 24 in wide either side of a 20 in table run about six feet along a railing and only two and a half feet out from it.

Adjustable pads under the table legs and a ring brace low on the base. Old patio slabs are where most bistro tables fail and this one has an answer for it.

What we stand behind

• Every measurement here is read off the manufacturer's own dimension drawing published with this product.
• The 400 lb chair figure and the 100 lb tabletop figure are the maker's published numbers.
• The listing name calls the table a coffee table. The drawing marks 28 in, which is dining height, and that is what is stated above.
• Fade resistant and sun protective are the maker's claims for the wicker, not results of ours.
• No UV rating, foam density or fabric weight is published, so none is quoted.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150, 14 day returns unused in original packaging.

Is this a coffee table or a dining table?

It stands 28 in high, which is dining height, not coffee table height. The listing name says coffee table but the maker's own size drawing marks 28 in. Against a 16.5 in seat that gives roughly a foot of clearance, which is what you want for a plate rather than a pair of feet.

How much weight will it take?

Four hundred pounds for each chair and 100 lb for the tabletop, both published by the maker on its dimension panel.

Do the cushion covers come off?

Yes, the covers are removable and washable. The maker adds its own note on the same listing: keep the cushions dry to prolong the service time. Wash the cover cool and on its own, leave the sponge out of the machine, and dry it flat in the shade.

Will the table wobble on a patio?

The base has four splayed legs braced by a reinforced circular ring near the bottom, and the feet are adjustable pads. On uneven flags or decking the pads are the part that takes the rock out.

How much room does it need?

Each chair is 24 in across and 25 in deep, the table is a 20 in square. Two chairs either side of it fill a strip roughly 6 ft by 2 ft 6 in, which suits a narrow balcony or the side of a porch.
