Very difficult to assemble, even if you know what you are doing. The pieces do not line up easy. You need to screw the screws only a few turn and pray the other side lines up. In my case the table and the chairs were a small challenge, but the love seat was a disaster. If that was the first piece I put together it all would have gone back. I gave it two stars instead of none because once together it look nice, but you will need to get rear cushions.
