It is nice patio furniture. My wife picked it out (did anyone think otherwise?). The sofa comes in one box. The two chairs in another box. They are all knock-down. There is a slight learning curve with the couch. Once done with that, the chairs went together quicker. I used my electric battery powered Ryobi screwdriver. It really helped. Several ( not all) screw components had misaligned hardware and pre-drilled holes. I had to compensate for these. All-in-all it is a good set. It looks great.the sofa is okay, but the chairs are more comfortable. Buy it. You will like it.
