Take note of a few things:(The yellow hue on the glass is a reflection from an acacia closeby.)1) FOLLOW the instructions!2) Don't fully tighten all of the screws until you have them fully aligned. The holes don't feel like they are going to line up and won't, if you fully tighten one side and then the other side. Leave them all a little loose so you can adjust accordingly.3) If you have two people to put this together, it's easier. It was just me and while I did it successfully, it would have gone faster if there were two of us. However, it is not impossible to do on your own.4) The cushions are NOT waterproof! Go buy yourself some waterproofing spray for outdoor fabrics and give the cushions a spray. I think that is going to help them last longer. I am perplexed that someone making outdoor furniture would not use waterproof fabric, but spraying it was easy.5) I found it easier to have the parts at table height (or in my case, hot tub height) rather than doing this all on the ground or floor. Less wear and tear on the back and knees.This is a nice set. Easy to assemble, if you follow the instructions.Everything is labeled perfectly. Just don't fully tighten all the screws until you get them inserted on both sides. I had to give it a good whack or two to get some of them to align, but that was fine.I LOVE that it came with the screws labeled perfectly and the tool to screw the parts together. There were even a few extra screws of each kind, just in case. I always appreciate that.The packaging was done really well.I had a few questions for customer service and they were quite responsive.I expect these to last a long time!
