This set looks great and appeared to be a good deal... However the screws to put it together were either just long enough to barely connect it or too short in some areas (the holes didn't line up so the screw never reached on 2 occasions). This was extremely frustrating and now I'm in fear the whole thing will collapse one day when someone sits on it! I placed it over some old patio footrests for extra support and will try to find longer screws to replace the ones it came with.
