A conversation set with no surface means glasses balanced on arms and plates on the deck boards. Adding a coffee table means finding room and matching the weave.

The ottoman here does both jobs. Cushion on, it is a footrest or an extra seat. Cushion off, the flat rattan top is a side table at 25 in square, already matching the rest of the set.

What the four pieces are

Two corner sofas, one armless seat and one ottoman. The corners have a single arm each, so they can bookend a run or face one another. The armless seat has none, which is what lets it sit between them.

Two things from one piece

The maker calls it a two in one design and the panel shows exactly what that means. The cushion lifts clear and the woven lid underneath is flat enough to take a tray, a bowl of fruit or a couple of glasses.

Sizes to measure against

Corner sofas are 29 in square, the armless seat is 29 in by 25 in, and the ottoman is 25 in square at 16.5 in tall. That matches the seat height, so the ottoman lines up as a leg rest rather than sitting proud.

Set up for an evening

Here the two corners face the armless seat with the ottoman in the middle as a table. Outdoor layout guides suggest about 18 in between seating and a table, which this arrangement lands close to.

One arm each, so they close a run at both ends or turn a corner.

One piece doing two jobs is the difference between a set that fits and a set that nearly fits.

Red against brown weave reads warm rather than loud, and the covers unzip if you ever want to change it.

How many people does it seat?

The maker says three to five depending on how you arrange it. Two corners and an armless seat give three proper places, and the ottoman takes a fourth person at a push if nobody has their feet up.

Is the ottoman top waterproof?

It is woven PE rattan, the same as the frames, which the maker describes as waterproof and wipe clean. It is a surface for drinks rather than a sealed tabletop, so a tray is still worth having.

Can the pieces be split between two areas?

Yes. Each piece stands on its own foot pads with its own cushions. A corner sofa on a balcony and the rest on the patio is a perfectly normal way to use this set.

What holds the pieces together?

Nothing is supplied. They butt up and hold by weight on aluminium foot pads. If your deck is exposed, clips made for wicker sectionals are sold separately by other brands.
