I received this patio furniture approx 2 weeks ago. I live alone and was able put together the set by myself. They include a hex wrench with each piece of furniture (so I received 3 total which is a bit excessive, but understand if I bought each item separately). The instructions are simple and it didn't take too long to assemble. The furniture is sturdy but not too heavy. It's easy to wipe down, when it gets dusty. Perfect for a small patio/balcony (which is where mine is). So far I like it. The price was reasonable and I would buy it again.
