Pros: Nice looking and comfortable.
Cons: Did not hold up to a small amount of use.
The Bottom Line: We would not buy this set again. We also won't let the Martha Stewart name influence us into thinking that it means quality materials.

| islanddreamer's Full Review: Martha Stewart Everyday Montecito Collection |
We purchased the Montecito Collection due to the tables unique shape and comfortable chairs. It was great for entertaining, with everyone being able to take part in the meal time conversation. No one was left out "at the far end of the table." It preformed well for the first few months and then the table shattered into many, many little pieces while we were installing the umbrella. We went back to K-Mart and purchased a new table.
In the third year, all of a sudden the chairs began ripping. Within 2 weeks four of the six chair seats had huge rips in them and they were unusable. The other two show signs that the same will happen to them. We did not put our set to hard use. There were no children standing on them, putting stress on the slings. It was just a few adults enjoying some meals.
We are so disappointed that this set didn't hold up. We spent a good amount of money on it and did not get what we paid for. We found a site through an earlier review that sells replacement slings, but then saw in another post that they are impossible to install. If anyone has any success with buying and installing replacement slings, please post it here.
