Deceiving pictures, regretting not diving deeper into the reviews. Photos provided show a much smoother surface than what was sent, paint/stain is not the greatest and does not seem to be sealed, chips in table top but I can't tell if it's from shipping, manufacturer defect or just how they meant for it to be? Two of the bench legs (A) were dinged, with chipped paint. Manufacturer is sending replacements but I'm not sure I'll keep this table. It is NOISY, every time you sit it is loud, creaky, poppy and super annoying. Even creaks when my 4 year old sits or moves a bit. Manufacturer lists this as a picnic and that's really how it looks and feels. Poor quality overall for the price. Lastly the slats seem wider than pictured, adds to the cheap appearance. I do not recommend this table set.
