I absolutely love this table. I researched a long time for exact size, color, stools, etc. Assembly was pretty easy. I would suggest using your own wood glue. I found the strengthening screws needed a drill to insert as a screwdriver didn't always work. Directions could have been a little more informative, but we figured it out. Follow them. Once assembled, the stools and the table are solid. I am more than pleased and would recommend this set highly. And of course, Wayfair is a stellar company that has always come through for me!
