I would rather have a colonoscopy with a broom handle than have to assemble this furniture again. It’s beautiful and sturdy. It looks great on my back porch, but what should’ve been a straight forward half hour assembly job turned into a 4 hour ordeal due to the fact that none of the screw holes lined up. Very poorly drilled. Looks like no quality control at the factory. Also, I’m not a tree hugger or anything, but they must have killed at least five trees just making the packaging for this stuff. Cardboard for DAYS. Filled our giant trash can up. If the assembly wasn’t such a pain, I would have given it five stars. It’s very nice, and comfortable.
