I love this set!  It was delivered in 2 large, sturdy boxes--very impressively packed!  I put it together myself, but used my own tools, not the little ones provided.  A good power drill and wrench is a must.   Easy peezy!  There was one plastic piece on the back couch leg broken in shipping, but Wayfair replaced the piece very promptly!   I plan on putting it on my deck this spring, but right now we are enjoying it in our finished basement.  Actually, I would love to keep it down there because it is very comfy.  Happy customer!!
