choosing outdoor furniture should sort of be done like the first round on 'The Voice'. sit in it and find something comfortable, regardless of what it looks like. i find pretty much everything has cushions that you 'bottom out' in, and after 10 min its so uncomfortable you can't bear it.

the only one i really like is Telescope's MGP Leeward, its so comfortable we never want to move from our deck.

I am having this same dilemma and just posted a question in the hopes of getting some responses! What did you finally decide on? Are you happy with the decision?

I would do big, over sized wicker.
