My husband n I took a long time putting these together…..I started myself but realized I needed help holding parts while trying to attach the screws!!  The first one took us, no lie, over two hours because once u put one screw in the other wouldn’t want to line up……when the directions say to put each screw in 1/2 way, try that first!!  Then the others will line up better!!  The second one took us about an hour because we already knew what was entailed!!  Anyway, I must admit that when completed, they look GREAT!!  Some reviews said the the padding was a little thin but we love what we got…..very comfortable…..n just lovely!!  We also purchased the little table separately.  If u don’t mind the assembly issues, I say go for it!!!  I’m giving them 5 stars because they are durable n pretty!!
