We just put this together yesterday. With the 2 of us, it took us 2-3 hours. We didn't experience any of the misalignment issues that others had, but we did receive a table leg with just one hole drilled into it instead of 2. I sent in a customer support request for a replacement, so I will see how that works out... I requested that the boxes be delivered back by the pool, but they were dumped on the porch. Uncertain if that was the delivery guy being too lazy to read the instructions, or if the instructions weren't passed along. Overall, the pieces are big enough (I was wary of getting some of the doll-house small pieces that I've read about) and they're comfy. The cushions are the color shown & are thick enough to be comfortable. So far... so good -- unless that table leg doesn't arrive!  

Pros: Good value, lots of pieces in the set, seem sturdy and large enough.
Cons: Table leg defective.
