When received the box was busted because the driver tried lifting it off the truck by himself and sit it down on the drive way. Although it was busted none of the pieces were damaged that I could see. Me and my husband put it together in no time and I love it. The pillows are nice and thick and the chairs are comfortable. Me and my husband are average tall so we did not want a set that was cheap. This was well worth the money. I love it!
