My husband put this together is just a couple of minutes.  It's very strong and should serve on our deck nicely as a bar when we entertain.  I ordered it in white to match other furniture.  I didn't give it a 5 star rating because some of the wicker has something on it that looks like rust.  I couldn't get it off with just water, but I think bleach will do the job.  If not,  I'll use a little white paint.  I really like it and don't want to return it.
