STURDY FOR LIGHT- MODERATE USE. DON'T FEEL THE STOOLS ARE TOO STURDY BUT JUST STARTED USING IT. WE ARE UP TO 180 LBS AND FEEL LIKE YOU NEED TO BE CAREFUL WITH IT.  EASY TO ASSEMBLE X 1 PERSON 3-40 MINUTES.  IT MATCHES MY DECK FURNITURE WELL.  COMES WITH GLASS TOP THAT FAIRLY THICK.  LOVE THAT ITS COMPACT ENOUGH FOR SMALL SPACES. ONLY 4 STARS DUE TO FEEL THAT STOOLS ARNT THAT STURDY BUT IF NOT USING ALL THE TIME SHOULD BE OKAY.
