I could not believe how little this set is.  The table is of normal size but the chairs themselves are on a small scale.  I have friends who will not sit in them.  I am only 115 pounds and yet I fit just right being 5 'tall.  But they could be a child's
set. It doesn't take up much room at all.  I wish I was home when my husband put it together , I would have stopped him and sent it back. But, he had a little trouble aligning one chair and he would not touch it again for fear it would be damaged and the return would be denied.
