I am really happy with this dining set. It shipped much faster than originally estimated. The chairs definitely took some time and patience to put together, but the instructions are straightforward if you read them carefully. The table went together very easily. It’s the perfect size for an apartment with a smaller dining area. After reading reviews about the tabletop scratching easily, I did purchase Wayfair’s warranty, which should cover those for a couple of years. Hopefully I won’t need it!
