This set arrived with major scuffs and gouges to the paint finish on very noticeable portions of the chair arms and legs. Given that this was an item wrapped in bubble wrap, these issues must have been ignored by the manufacturer and sold anyhow. Add to that the fact that putting this set together is incredibly difficult and took two people nearly three hours to complete, I would certainly buy something else if I could go back in time. To anyone considering this set, sure, it looks nice when it's done, as long as you don't look too closely.
