Patio Furniture (1996-1998)

This set looks fabulous set up, but I honestly think it is the cheapest, chinciest (is that spelled right? Is it even a word?) set that was ever made! Ours was an ebay buy that arrived mostly broken. The top, white part of the table that holds the "glass" top was broken clear through and I still have not been successful at gluing it. I have it held together with tape. The chairs are also in somewhat rough shape and constantly come apart when we sit dolls in them. The upside to this is the fact that all of the pieces disassemble and/or fold down for easy storage. The table and chairs are made of plastic, the chairs have fabric seats. The large umbrella is nice. It opens and closes just like a real one and the top is made of a heavy duty fabric. My girls like it - but they scream every time the chairs fold up on them <G>. I give it a B for playability (when the pieces stay together!), but a D for quality and design.
