Today we received this table and chairs.  It took my husband and I an hour or less to assemble.  Fed Ex wasn't paying attention to the label on the box which said FRAGILE, apparently.  There were several big holes in the box, one of which went right into the table top, creating an indentation in the wood about a quarter inch in width.  But we are going to just live with it rather than have to order a replacement top.  This is a nice, heavy wood table.  One of the horizontal pieces on the chair legs didn't fit as flush to the chair legs on one chair as on the other, but again, we can live with it as it isn't noticeable.  Otherwise, it's a great looking set.
