I cannot say enough about this dining set, my favorite of any I have ever purchased.  It went together without issue, the chairs are comfortable and the entire set is classy and timeless.  It is a focal point in my dining room and is one of the first things people comment on.  It is very well made and there is ample room for 6 people to sit and eat.  I highly recommend that you use warm water to wipe it down and dry off with a dry cloth, that is all you need, though even after a week or more it still retained the high gloss appearance, not too high gloss, and it is absolutely beautiful and timeless.  I love it!
