I was nervous to order this set as there was no reviews. But, the price was so attractive so I went ahead and ordered it. There were a lot of boxes and lots of assembling, but nothing I could not handle. Once the dust was settled, I had a beautiful and elegant dining set which had cost me under $1000. The chairs are nice and comfortable and guests can sit on them long after finishing their dinner and continue their conversations. The table is nice too, made of solid wood. The surface has an antique looking finish which is great as I won't have to be worried about minor scratches. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and highly recommend this set.
