Very easy to put together for us. Came with all the parts. Nothing was damaged or missing. Shipping was fast. Quality is what I expected for the price. I like a firm chair for dining and this are firm yet comfortable. It was a little bit tough to get the bolts on the legs tight enough with the tool they gave us so we used a little wrench and that was fine. The color is truly black wood and ivory chairs and thats just I wanted. Its a good quality for the price I paid.
