Thiss swing was very easy to put together. I had it together in less than 20 minutes. It holds two adults perfectly fine ( I was a little worried since most porch swings have a low weight limit ). My only disappointments is that the ropes are a fixed length and we had to buy chains to hang the swing lower. And the swing came damaged. I called to replace the damaged part and the next day I had an email saying they couldn't replace that part so they replaced the whole swing. The customer service is wonderful! I was very happy with the support I received from Wayfair!!
