The set looks nice and classy after assembly. However, the quality is questionable: More than one chair came with chipped arm rest, and uneven staining. One of the chair sets was missing assembly parts ( 8 screws that we had to go to Home Depot to replace). The pre-drilled holes for the screws are not exactly where they are supposed to be. The wood is very soft, and has an unfinished feel to it. We still like the look of the set quite a bit, and won't be returning it. Considering the reasonable price, I think the overall value is acceptable, but you likely will not be extremely impressed with the quality of this product.
