We haven't had this set for very long, but so far I'm fairly impressed.  My wife and thirteen-year-old son put it together if that's any sort of endorsement for the simplicity of the assembly.  The look and design of the table are very nice.  Call me back in a year and I'll be able to tell you more in regards to the quality and how it is holding up.  So far, I'd say it was a good purchase.
