Received my set 2 days ahead of schedule and it was just as pictured! Me and my husband assembled it in about 2 hours, most of it was easy but we did have some problems with some of the holes not matching up...lucky for me my husband is handy!  Also, on one of the bars for the table they completely forgot to add the holes, so my husband had to drill holes into it.  Other than that, everything else went smooth and we are satisfied with our new patio set! Would recommend it to others.
