The items came packaged really well and were on time.  I assembled the 4 chairs first and although they didn't have the greatest instructions, was able to complete in under 2 hours with just one adult.  I purchased the extended warranty...just in case.  Hoping the table assembly will be just as easy and hope to enjoy this outdoor dining set for many years.  Perfect size.  Ordered cushions for chairs although the chairs by themselves were very comfortable.  Will have to determine once umbrella is placed if additional umbrella base is needed.
