I have a rental property with a pretty big backyard, the tenants have barbecues in the back so i figured i'd be the backyard a picnic table. It's easy to assemble by yourself (i assembled it in 20 minutes) but actually standing it up and moving it into position i highly recommend having a 2nd person help. The tenants love it. There aren't really any other competitors in the market place that make anything like this at this price point...very happy with the purchase.
