This set is awesome, my kids love it keeps them busy so I love it. The wood is very good and sturdy without the look of being aged natural looking wood which to me is good for the kids especially cause rain washes most of the dirt off you just have to maintain the corners. It held up two adults and two kids really well could easily hold more. It came with all pieces and some extra. The shipping I would say was the longest I’ve had to wait for a purchase but considering the weight it was expected. It took about 8 hrs for a two man crew to finish not to bad so For me worth the stars!
