5-Piece Rattan Patio Furniture Set with Anti-Slip Cushions & Waterproof Covers - Outdoor Wicker Sofa, Chairs & Ottoman in Peacock Blue - Perfect for Garden, Poolside & Backyard Relaxation

Purchased this on 5/25/23 with order set to deliver between 6/2/23 to 6/9/23. It was a surprise that it showed up on 5/28/23! Super fast shipping. My picture is not of the furniture, instead I am showing you the three tools that made the build process easier. Yes, it was time consuming to put together, these items will speed up the time it takes. 3/8 wrench fits nicely on the nuts and the T30 star head in my Dewalt 6 inch drive guide fit in the allen head bolts. The furniture comes with “tools” to put together but the “wrench” is double sided and after a few times of struggling to get it to hold, then realizing I was using the wrong side, I knew I had to find something else. The 3/8 held the nut on one side, then I used the T30 in my drill to tighten. The drive guide comes in handy in tight spots where there are metal bars and the drill can’t get close enough to connect with the part I was screwing. Have a couple of small flashlights available. Black furniture, black bolts, and small dark recessed areas basically equal not being able to see. When attaching the arms, I found it handy to have a puck light on the inside of the arm, and a flashlight on the other side where the bolt head was. DO NOT TIGHTEN EACH BOLT AS YOU PUT IT IN. Wait until you have them all put in, and the pieces aligned properly. I tightened the inside arm bolts first, then the edges near where the feet go to keep the pieces aligned. Then went one by one until all were tightened. I read this in a review and I’m glad I listened.ok, now for what I think of it all put together. Very sturdy and nice looking. Both my husband and I sat on the chairs, ottomans and couch comfortably. It is lower than my previous loveseat, but on unusually low. Everything arrives in two boxes, on 80 lbs and one 66 lbs. Big boxes for sure! Cushions are compressed in clear bags and pieces were stored inside the arm compartments. I ordered turquoise and received turquoise for the chairs but blue for the couch. I contacted seller and within a couple hours new turquoise couch cushions were on the way. I realized after I checked my email that the seller knew they shipped the wrong color and had reached out to me before I received the order to let me know. Great customer service! The only thing that I find curious are the feet that attach to the couch. They fit on the corner and there is an extra hole for a bolt right next to the edge. Because these are all smaller pieces bolted together, it’s seems like a foot should be longer in the front and span the two connected pieces. You can see what I mean in the picture of the foot.Note that the pics of the furniture are with my old cushions, not the cushions that come with it. Mine are bigger and don’t fit as well. Once the new turquoise covers arrive I will swap them out.I am so glad that I purchased this! I would highly recommend it!
