We are very happy with the chairs and small table.  The Instructions are by photo only (China, you know), We had some difficulties at first as we were putting the first chair together, but once we got the hang of it, the second chair was completed  in less than half the time.  The chairs are very comfortable and good looking!!  The price was great, and it was worth having to put them together ourselves.  The cushions are very sturdy and should last us a good while.  We love the blue!  We would buy these again (especially now that we are expert at putting them together)!
