This table and chair set had soooo many problems. The table top had a huge split running down the entire width of the table. Assembling the chairs was a disaster as the pre-screwed holes are uneven and inconsistently sized throughout, causing all of the chairs to rock from side to side and in a bad way. Our daughther even slipped off the chair because the unevenness/rocking was so severe. The wood seems very soft and had several cracks near the pre-screwed holes. I'm definitely returning this piece of junk.I just don't understand all of the glowing reviews. I suppose if you're going by looks alone, it is a handsome set, but the construction and quality is CRAP.
