It is a great piece and very sturdy. Does look pretty rustic though - not quite our style - but I knew that. Will probably change the hardware later. Left off the button detail for this reason. Time to put it together is prob 1 hour and my husband is a pro. We ordered two. The hinge doesn’t slam for kid use which was my main concern. Also can probably paint later with out too much effort. Blends nicely with other jutesea grass  wicker colors. Overall a good buy. The one star off for me is look not function.
