I bought this as just a little dinning room table for my apartment and my parents came in to town the next day and they also approved. The table is not very big but as mentioned, fits just right for a run of the mill 1 bedroom apartment dinning space. It's sturdy and the chairs are comfortable. I put it all together by myself except putting the cushions on, which I borrowed a power drill for (quicker and easier), but the directions are straight forward and they provide an alan wrench which takes care of the majority of work. 

Pros: Easy assembly, sturdy, and a low price
Cons: Not as big as some may prefer
