I can only give this three stars, even though I love the look of it. My husband spent WAY more time than should have been necessary putting this together as none of the holes lined up. In the end the settee did get put together, but several of the screws etc. were not used. It is in an area that will not get a ton of "real use" so I am not too worried about it's strength to stay together. However, if you want something you can really use, look further. 

Pros: Looks good as decorative piece.
Cons: Harder to put together than should be.
