This piece is an awesome VALUE!  However, it is a real pain to put together.  The directions are good & not complex, but the screws / alignment is really hard for some areas & getting your hand to fit in some spots is very difficult.  It took me 2 hrs + some expletives, but the final product was well worth what I paid.  It is very comfy for a small set & the seat depth is good (I'm 5'10").  It is also darker / more brown looking in person.
