Overall it is a nice design, the set is sturdy when assembled correctly. The screw holes in the chairs are uneven so the chair legs need some felt pass to make them not wobbly. There are rough black patches on the table top and side, at first I thought it was mold, but it never came off even with a magic eraser. The design on the chairs is sloppy at best, but at a distance you cant tell, one even had a snag on the seat area, another one had some tool mishap mark along the side. There are cracks in some of the slats on some of the chairs back. I am very disappointed in the flaws, such a shame since this could be a wonderful dining set.
