Installation took me and my husband 2 12 hours. Definitely get yourself the following tools 10mm deep 14 socket and ratchet, We used a 532 hex bit to tighten up screws and then used the Allen wrench that came with set which is metric to tighten down. We found 2 of the nut inserts were bad, which is not bad. With all that being said we absolutely LOVE the set! Going to get decorative pillows and a rug to finish off the look!
