It is colorful,solid and has a”retro” look.The only thing was,it was very hard to read the blueprint and the step by step directions were not easy to read- very confusing.It is made of heavy steel and hard for two senior citizens to put together.It took us a whole weekend to assemble the glider with frequent breaks due to frustration.I gave it four stars because the finished product came out nice,but it was not easy to assemble and did have some threaded holes where the thread did not go all the way through and there are a few dents in the metal.
