First, I want to say that I was amazed that all the pieces fit into a fairly small box.  Everything was there and the assembly was pretty easy.  The directions aren’t the best but if you are handy with tools it’s not difficult.  I suggest using a power drilldriver with a long bit extension and a hex bit for assembly.  A hex wrench is included, but it would take a while to fasten all the screws by hand.  The furniture is sturdy after assembly.  My only complaints are that the chairs sit very low to the ground and the chair pads are pretty thin.
