I am so pleased with this purchase. So FedEx dropped off big box. I am pretty disabled so I was not able to carry it to the porch but I managed to take it piece by piece onto the back porch to assemble.
The first thing you want to do is make sure all your parts are there and mine were.
I would suggest keeping all of the washers and bolts in the little plastic bags that they come in. This makes it easier to assemble.
It was a total of six hours to assemble but bear in mind that I am handicapped and have issues with my hands so I found that it was pretty easy to do. The directions are schematic and it was a little challenging but I got through it.
Another Keynote is when you open up the plastic where the cushions are that you have to put into the covers they are going to expand from 1 inch to 4 inches very quickly. Installing the cushion into the cover I recommend folding it in half pushing it all the way to the back and then releasing it and talking and straightening. The cushions are absolutely fabulous I love the nonskid bottom. I wish that my existing set had this on it because overtime they slide off.
The quality of the frame is phenomenal with good crossbeam underneath.
Everything that you need to assemble it comes with the package which is an Allen wrench and a wrench. No other tools are necessary.
I was also extremely happy that it came a week earlier than what was anticipated.
The only drawback was that the back of the couch is short but after I spent six hours assembling it I took a nice 2 1/2 hour nap on it and it was incredibly comfortable.
So with this old lady could put it together you could round two and he will be very happy with that! And the nice thing is the furniture even though its very well constructed its not a heavy piece of furniture and easy to move around.
Great value high quality This!
