The set arrived and there was no assembly required.  It just took some time to take them out of the boxes and to remove the protective packaging.  The set looks great and it comes with a set of spare covers.  The color by default that comes with it is a sand like color and the Navy blue covers were located in the shipment.  The set works perfect around our pool area and the cushions are super confortable.  We bought the Outdoor Square Patio Table Cover from Wayfair also and it covers the whole set up from the elements.  I highly recommend !
