Certainly one of the most time consuming things I've ever took putting it together, probably from trial and error, but very nice quality for the price. The holes aren't the most aligned, so only put together the table portion just lightly screwing in the screws until they're all in before actually securing and tightening them. Tape the key underneath for tightening after a few weeks.

While the packaging was damaged I was hopeful that the product wouldn't be. Much like many other reviews, the table has a smashed corner that is probably a result of poor handling. If I sit on that side of the table it drives me nuts, but if I am on the other side and don't see it I can live with it. My recommendation would be to choose a different shipping organization as many others have the same feedback. Minus the smashed corner, I love the table. It's well constructed and appears to be of quality materials. I would have provided a 5 star review if the product wasn't damaged. However, the build was easy, the instructions were straight forward. I would certainly recommend this table to others.

When finally put together the table will work for very basic needs; however, the assembly is ludicrous. It takes way too long and is a waste of your time. I am pretty good working with tools and it is not difficult to follow the directions but there a so many bolts and it makes the process atrociously tedious. The product is metal and cheap laminate and every time you tighten one set of screws, the others misaligned turning a basic task into one akin to herding cats. I felt like Sisyphus. The manufacturer needs to redesign this aspect of the product.

This was perfect for what we wanted. It looks exactly like the photo. The materials are sturdy and of good quality. It definitely does not look like a $200 table and chairs. We put some felt on the bottom of the chairs to keep it from scratching the floor. We are very pleased with it, and I'm rather picky, so that is quite a compliment. We are very happy with this purchase and recommend it.

1) this is a great value - solid table for the price! 2) I read a lot of reviews prior to purchasing - the negativity about assembly did not deter me from the purchase. And I'm glad it didn't. It is a good table set. The chairs were easy to assemble. The table assembly was a little time consuming, mostly due to some of the welded brackets being slightly off angle and a few screws holes being off center. But assembly was not bad - leave all the hardware loose until they are all started - then tighten them all down. 3) Concerning shipping damage - the shipping package is big and heavy. After all - it's a table set. So any shipping company will struggled with the box. Hence the reviews that complained about shipping damage. I guess I was lucky, I received only very minor corner damaged on my table. My suggestion to the seller -- the box was packed very well to prevent shipping damage - with one exception ... the corners of the box. Adding more corner protection in the shipping packaging would prevent future complaints of shipping damage. Over all ... very satisfied with this purchase

2019 purchase in a 2021 review. So before and during COVID. I so far have no complaints. Assembled the table and by myself, and was delivered by UPS. Who helped me take the shipment up to the 2nd floor to my apartment. So I'll be honest. The after results I'm pleased with, but i didn't enjoy the process. But in the end, exactly what i wanted for a cheapier price THEN than what is listed now! I paid 240 in 2019, talk about a price jump 👀

Beautiful, sturdy dinette set. Wood finish is very pretty and looks great with metal legs. A bit of an industrial look but doesn't have to be. The set came carefully packaged and arrived with no damage at all. It's easy to put together just time consuming at 3-3 1/2 hours. Everything fit together perfectly. Highly recommend product and seller! Definitely a good value.
