Very nice set, sturdy, well made with one exception: the broom. The handle is not securely attached to the broom. Its a design flaw, metal screwed into the straw broom does not work. Customer service was wonderful in replacing ours that fell apart. So now we use a real broom made of cast iron from local hardware store. Aside from that the rest of the pieces are the best we have ever had as far as quality and function.
