the right choice
The table arrived today and was delivered by liftgate, dropped off in my driveway. I called to confirm I wouldn't have to take it off the truck myself as described in an answer to one of the questions. Delivery was on time, the first day of the 7 day window I was given at time of order. Assembly was easy. Since I had no one to help, I assembled upright so I didn't have to worry about flipping over when complete. I wouldn't advise that if possible since it takes longer to reach under everything and it probably isn't as safe, but that should tell you how easily it goes together. Just make sure you have the right tools. It's all one size nuts and bolts. I don't need to anchor it since the weight itself is enough to keep it entirely stable. It's solid, just as expected, and I'm sure it will last a lifetime. At least the lifetime I have left. There is a hole for the umbrella in the table and support bracket. It probably doesn't require an umbrella base since the weight of the table should keep it secure but I'll decide for certain if and when I get an umbrella. The only minor annoyance was that it was missing some of the hardware. 2 bolts, 2 nuts and 4 washers. It's stable enough for now but I'll have to run around to get the missing parts if the seller doesn't follow up with the pieces. I was tempted to knock a star off of the rating because of this nuisance but that's really a seller attribute rather than a product defect. Perhaps it's a manual bagging process at the manufacturer. Adding a couple extra would be nice in case of assembly error or simply to avoid this kind of thing that seems to happen all too often these days. There was also a minor dent on the outside of one of the benches, most likely from shipping. Nothing dramatic enough to complain about but I figure full disclosure is best. I looked at many similar styles and decided on this one because the price was good and free shipping works for me. If you're on the fence, go for it. You won't be sorry. I got black on black but the color choices are very cool too.UPDATE: Contacted Coated Outdoor Furniture and they promised to send the missing pieces right away. Can't complain when they remedy the issue immediately. I see this item is no longer available through this seller and the prices are much higher from those who have it available. Glad I purchased when I did. Thank you COF. Looking forward to my next party, whenever that may be.

Beautiful! Party time!!!
A good friend put this together, all by himself. Despite the look, the legs came as 4 sets, not 8 individual legs. Just lined up the 4 parts, LOOSELY screw them together with the supplied nuts, bolts and washers. Despite what some said to assemble it right side up, my installer said to do what the instructions say....install it upside down, but make sure it is on a tarp or something to protect scratching of the top. Then, you will need at least 2 people to turn it over, AFTER all the nuts and bolts are thoroughly tightened. Despite the picture on the ad looks grey, and saying it is blue, it IS blue...a beautiful dark blue. See if I can add a picture of the blue color it really is, as this shows it to be grey.

Good table, poor QC.
The table is great and fairly easy to assemble with two people. However I was pretty disappointed that with only one step left I noticed that I was shorted 4 washers and a nut in hardware. For $1000 table, you would think the hardware would not only be complete, but would include several extra nuts/bolts/washers. Nothing more aggravating than not having the supplies to complete the assembly.

Sturdy table, needed a few minor tweaks during and after instlation.
Very sturdy, gets a lot of compliments.- Assembly by two people took around 45 minutes.-The interior of the umbrella pole openings need protection from wear, we wrapped the pole with silicon repair tape at those locations.- There were several small areas of damaged finish due to mishandling at some point in shipping, we used liquid electrical insulation to repair.- There is no provision for attachment to the ground, so we had to drill holes in the legs, a potential weak spot in the otherwise excellent weather-proofing.

Awesome purchase!
These tables are awesome! We have 9 children and needed something durable that we knew will last a long time.We love these tables!Assembly took us little bit to figure out, but once we got the first one done (definitely a two man job) we were quick to put the next one together.The color of the table is vibrant and the children love eating meals outdoors.We were missing one washer in the assembly kit, but it was an easy piece to come by.

Perfect addition to the backyard.
This picnic table is the perfect addition to the back yard. My patio is 10x12 i have a grill built into one corner of it. So putting a table in the middle of the deck wasnt going to work. Its sturdy, even when sitting on one side at 250 lbs it doesnt wobble or feel unstable. Definitely a two person assemble job. Me and my 7 year old put it together in about 45 mins.

difficult to put together
There's a lot of long screws to screw nuts on to. The thing is the nuts are locknuts, so you can just spin the nuts on by hand, each nut and bolt is a project.Also, the instructions are not detailed and don't have any pictures or diagrams showing how things should go.Other than that, I just got it and it looks sturdy and seems comfortable from a 30 second sit.

Very Sturdy, Durable table
The table is what we expected...heavy, durable and will last a lifetime. We felt it was a bit difficult to assemble and to get level. We haven't moved the table to it's final resting place because the concrete slab isn't finished yet. When we do move the table, we will loosen the bolts and get it level before tightening the bolts again.
