This set is fairly easy to put together, however some washers were missing and screws were miss matched on the parts that came assembled. The connectors do not hold the sections together well. The cushions do not stay in place. The cover that came with the set left marks on all the cushions and pillows. It is too much of a hassle to return. We will need to look to buy something of greater quality. Sad to waste money on this set. Do not recommend.
