I got this set yesterday and immediately put it together.  It suggests having two people, but I was so excited, I assembled it by myself.  It was really easy...the chairs come assembled, so the only piece that needs to be put together is the table...easy peasy!  I actually got two wrong chairs that I decided to keep because they had arms and matched so well.  (Shari from Wayfair was great.  She was going to make it possible for me to return the chairs if I wanted, even though I had thrown away the boxes!)  They never disappoint!

The set looks exactly as depicted. I am anxious to see how it holds up, but it looks sturdy enough.  We'll see.  So far, so good. :-)
