Beautiful swing, and I'm sure I'll love it now that it is together.  But assembly took forever -- with many snags.  The representative at the company was fantastic (sending extra parts that did not come in original package, talking me through issues, etc.)  It made things significantly harder because I stained it (semi-transparent, water based stain) prior to assembly.

Box can significantly damaged, but no harm to the contents.  Arrived 1 week earlier than I had anticipated!
