Arrived on time  reasonably priced, this set is self assembly but it is very straight forward. Although there are a large number of bolts, I would recommend using a small ratchet not a power tool to do them up and do not over tighten them as you could damage the chair or table. Once assembled the set looks very nice and was just what we wanted. One word of caution, being made of cast mettle you may find a sharp edge or two during assembly so be aware. I only found one and it was when I was doing the last bolt up so I ended up with a little cut on one finger. I would also recommend fitting all the bolts and washers in place as you assemble each part  only tighten them when this is done so you don’t put unnecessary strain on any of the pieces. Overall I think this set is decent value for money and looks great but I cannot comment on how durable it is and how long it will last as we have only just purchased it.
