Looks good and the ironwork is heavy but:- a) half the fastenings were missing, although they did send them promptly when requested. .b) The wooden slats went into the ends without too much trouble but the struts for underneath were poorly shaped to fit. The holes in the central strut did not fit against the middle of the slats and several of the slats had to be forced against the strut to get the screws in. c) the small side struts also were poorly shaped and positioned - because the central wooden slat was not quite central, it was not easily possible to fasten the side struts to the seat. In the end we screwed one to the central slat by twisting it, the other tore the screw out and had to be fastened at a weird angle to the adjacent slat. d) it may be solid wood but the way that screw tore out tells that it's pretty poor quality. AND an instruction leaflet would have been very helpful!
