My mother needed patio furniture that would fit her small front porch. We tried various “bigger” pieces before measuring the spice and researching the size online. Very few sets fit this space without obscuring her front door. Of the sets that would, most reviews claimed they were too small to be comfortable. This was the only set that allowed free returns, which ultimately made the decision for us, as returning something this size (if it didn’t work) would be quite pricey.So I’ll start with the basics. Each chair consists of 2 sides, a back, and a seat. They are held together by approximately 12 identical bolts. There is no variation in parts so you can’t get it wrong. Each part is also labeled A, B, C, etc.At first glance, it appeared that the holes were drilled incorrectly and would not fit together, as stated in so many other reviews. However, each chair set was packaged separately within the box so I wondered if each chair was drilled to fit its own parts and it was. In other words, the sides to chair two, although identical, would not have screwed onto chair one because the holes would not have lined up on either piece. They appear to have been individually drilled, one at a time, rather than on an assembly line where everything is exact or the same.Before beginning, I made sure that each of my sides appeared to line up with the pieces I started with. They did. From there, I inserted the bolts and gave them a couple of twists (without tightening) so that the chair was assembled very loosely. This is a trick I’ve learned in assembling furniture - to tighten everything at the end and it fits better.Aligning the parts and starting the bolts took about 12 minutes per chair. Actually tightening each of the screws on the chair with the Allen wrench (provided) took around 30 minutes. This is because of the small space provided by the size of the chair, which means you have to make very tiny turns with the wrench until tight and that is time consuming.I did have one bolt that did not want to screw all the way in due to the angle, which I might could have fixed by loosening the whole side and beginning with that bolt, but I chose not to.As far as the table, you have 4 sides, a top, and a glass top to bolt together. One side is in the separate box with the top and glass piece and I believed that it had been left out of the set at first.The glass top does not stay on with the suction cups, but I imagine better cups could be used. I do not think it will impact my mother’s use of the table.The material feels like a very cheap plastic twine, like most outdoor chairs you see. The set at my own house, though larger and more expensive, is made from basically the same stuff. There were no cracks or holes in the material.The end result looks exactly like the pictures and fit her space. I sat in one of the chairs and it is a little shorter than I’d like but will fit her space. It doesn’t “look” short. It doesn’t fit tight when I sit down in it either (and I’m not as small as I used to be). For a set that has to be very small to fit a small space, it does its job while still providing room to sit.The cushions are not attractive and are very deflated in some areas but not others. I imagine she will replace those very soon.I wrote this review because of the other reviews about the pieces not fitting together. If you run into this problem, stop, go back and check to see if the side you have will fit the other back, because in my case, each piece had been specially drilled to fit each chair and that might be true in your case as well.
