Our order was received on time and in good condition. The instructions for assembling the chairs were terrific but the table instructions were a bit lacking in detail (no worries though--the manufacturer web site was helpful). It took about three hours total to assemble the whole set. It looks beautiful on our patio and is extremely sturdy. No worries about rust with this set. The pieces are heavy so my kids can't drag them all over the yard and they stand up to being climbed on. Would (and already have) recommended this set. Also you can look all over for a better deal like we did but you won't find it. We shopped this set on other web sites but no one can beat the Overstock price.

I've had this set since July of 2007 and the paint is bubbled and flaking on the horizontal surfaces. The set was covered the entire winter. Beware of this issue with this product.

I was a little nervous to make this purchase on line. The quality is great, the assembly was easy, and we are excited to use it. One person can assemble, but two people are necessary to manipulate the table top.

We are happy with the set, but be aware that the set must be put together with nuts and bolts that do not all fit in the holes provided, and most of the holes do not exactly line up with each other, requiring ingenuity and purchase of new longer screws. most of the problems were with the chairs.
