Summary: Finished projects are rough and utilitarian-looking
Comment: If you're a beginning woodworker looking for ideas, this book will be helpful. The instructions are detailed and clear, there are ample photos illustrating the construction, and complete cutting lists are provided.

There are some projects here that give you good woodworking experience. Unfortunately, the finished products are rough-looking and utilitarian. There's nothing in here that you would be proud to show off.

Some of the projects could be cleaned up by adding some finishing techniques such as routing edges on the wood and adding more curves to your cuts. If you have an eye for design, this book will give you the technical know-how to put together outdoor furniture. But if you follow the plans step-by-step, you'll have a backyard full of furniture that looks like it was made by the local troop of Cub Scouts.
