This is two identical sets of 4 - come in two large boxes. The chairs are low, so good for lounging; but if you plan to also double these as regular chairs, it won't work. Assembly is straight-forward, however, there were a few misaligned  screws/drill holes, which we had to re-adjust. One of the chairs had some small but noticeable scratches, which must have happened before shipping as the boxes were intact. Color is true to the picture.
