    Thought these would be a suitable replacement for a similar set i got from B+Q 5 years ago as they need re varnishing.

    However the set is very flimsy and the wood used is thinner than my old set so didn't bother, it just didn't seem very strong or sturdy to me

    What do you expect for £23? Decent quality solid wood furniture is more like 230, not 23.

    I hope they are fit for purpose (don't break when sat on) but you can't expect much more than that for such a good deal.

    Well they were meant to be £70 and i only paid £50 for my last set and they have lasted 5 years and still going strong apart from needing varnishing.

    Good luck with getting one. The Slough store is showing stock. You can reserve online then when you go to collect you are told there are none available. This seems to happen frequently with this company.

    snap!! same here with slough, had text message saying ready for collection today!!!!!!
