The 5 piece dining set is a very attractive set and fits my breakfast space beautifully. The set arrived in 3 large boxes which were a little beat up from travel. The set itself was packaged well so no damage to it.  I would imagine that if I didn't have my own tools it would have been a little harder to use the provided allen wrench to put the set together. But as it was the assembley was easy. There was one problem with the set missing 2 screws which might have been a setback but I happened to have screws that fit. So I didn't have to call customer service. After it was all together the set looked exactly as pictured. One thing about the table is that if it's not put together correctly then it will wobble. It seems that the legs didn't fit together exactly but it can be fixed with a little muscle.
