2.5 hours, 15 curse words and a backache later - my new outdoor furniture is assembled. If I were a normal person I would have had someone help with this assembly or taken a break after the first hour, but I would not let this furniture defeat me. DEFINITELY follow the recommendation of waiting to completely tighten all the screw until theyre all in. Also, make sure to save at least 4 of the longer screws for the table and dont make the mistake that I did of having to take longer screws out of the already assembled chairs to have some for the table. My table is missing two screws because the holes werent lining up to get them in, but it is sturdy enough without them. This was literally a PAIN to put together, but Im happy with how it turned out. I knocked it down a star just because this was the most frustrating piece of furniture Ive ever assembled.
Happy with end result...
