It was not difficult to put together. My husband was out of town when it arrived, I just figured why not! I’ll give it a try. Read the instructions, watch the YouTube video, lay everything out so it’s reachable from a sitting position on the floor. The hardest part was getting up and down 10 times before I had everything I needed to accomplish the job ( I’m 69) so it’s getting more difficult. Good luck! 

It’s a great piece and it is comfortable. I would buy again!  I’ll post pictures when my patio is put together and all my pieces are together, I can’t wait!!
