Thrilled with how this looks!  The way it was shipped, the packaging and the instructions were AMAZING! It took be about 45 minutes to unbox and organize all the parts, then it took another 3.5 hours to actually assemble each of the 5 pieces.  The directions tell you that each piece takes about 30 minutes to assemble and that's exactly right. The cushions are thick and comfortable and the whole set looks great!!
