This 4 welded chairs with steel frame dining table by Winston Porter is actually very cute and modern looking in person! It came in two large boxes and was well packaged. All four chairs are stacked (without their cushions) and the table did have support brackets holding the four legs inside of it, but the plastic brackets were damaged in shipping so the legs did get a little bit scratched and dented up--but no noticeable big deal unless youre up close to them. There were no assembly instructions but it is straightforward how to build it. The tool was supplied to put the four legs under the base of the table, and we used a screw gun to attach the four cushions to each chair there are no pre-drilled holes for the screws to attach the cushions onto, so we just lined them up the best we could and screwed directly into the wood. The black granite table top is beautiful and very shiny,--the detail of the art is gorgeous. I weigh about 270 lb, my husband about 300 lb and we both feel comfortable sitting on the chair with no problem or question of integrity. I would have given it five stars had there been pre-drilled holes for the chairs and the plastic brackets that held the legs under the table didnt break and shipping and scratch and dent the legs.
