Had a little difficulty in the assembly when I had to remove some of the already seated bolts so that the holes would line up, had to get some strong male help, but other than that it went together easily. A few words instead of all pictures would have been helpful. The table did have a lot of rust that was all inside the packaging but it cleaned off and seemed to be ok. I think I'll enjoy the set. The seats are comfortable and I like not having to deal with separate cushions.
