So I'm giving this 3 stars because one of the table pieces has a few tiny cracks and am worried that this may cause problems down the road.  Some of the chairs have the same tiny hairline cracks and a few bumps on the chairs.  It's still a nice set and would probably give it 4 stars, but I need to buy extra pieces of wood to drill into the bottom of the table.  Otherwise, the people sitting at the ends of the table can't put any kind of weight on the table or it starts to invert and everything gets knocked over.  Hard to believe that this wasn't considered and included with the set, as the rest of it seems very sturdy.
