I think it's a very nice set for the price, but was NOT easy to put together! The directions were bad, none of the pieces were marked, etc. Took us over 4 hours to put together and was rather frustrating. Also, took too long to receive it after purchase (4 weeks). Otherwise, we love it! Seems to be nice and well made, I really like that it came with covers for the cushions too. All in all, good deal.
