This was a perfect solution on how to winterize my summer patio furniture. I purchased 3 to fit all the cushions and pillows and, placed them at the end of my swimming pool. The gray/ black color compliments my pool décor and color selection.  As for assembly, I did it on my own and it took about 30 minutes per each to assemble; it was easier on each one as I knew what to expect. The directions are "on point" and very clear.  Of note, I am a novice at assembling things.  I even took the extra time to apply clear caulk on all the joints to ensure no moisture can come in as these will sit outside. Great purchase? I am very pleased.
