Customer Reviews

Nice table - bad instructions and fasteners
This is a very nice looking and sturdy table. A nice extra is they ship a small bottle of touch-up paint with the product.

The table may look nice now, but getting there was a pain in the neck. On the positive side - it is very well packaged. No worries about any damage during transport - not a small issue for many items.

That said, the instruction sheet included was for a different (rectangular) table with completely different legs. Even if it was for the same table, it was in that hard-to-understand translated-into-English-using-a-dictionary vocabulary. There was a nicely vacuum packed card with all of the bolts and washers, as well as an appropriate wrench that fit the bolts. Unfortunately, there were 12 bolts in two sizes and 12 washers - but 16 holes waiting for bolts in the table. All of the bolts were too long for any of the holes - even with the washers.

I ended up getting a bunch of extra washers and few shorter bolts at my local hardware store (if you need to do this make sure you get stainless steel so rust will not be a problem). The bolts provided required between 3 and 4 washers each before they could be adequately tightened.

Whew - finally done. The table is serving us well on the patio. It replaces a glass topped model which flipped over and shatterred in a big wind last fall. The open weave design is nice - very easy to clean the top. Give me a couple of months to get over the trauma of assembly and I might give it 5 stars.

Purchased Entire Collection. Wow!
Extremely pleased! We received the entire Strathwood Bainbridge Collection within 2 weeks and the packing job alone seems to be worth the cost of the product(s)!! The patio furniture is both beautiful and solid. Hope it will last for many years.

Fast shipping, Fast assembly, Nice Table
This item arrived lightning fast (ordered it Monday morning, received in my apartment Tuesday afternoon). I was pleasantly surprised that assembly wasn't difficult. All the necessary parts were in the package, and the diagram made it fairly clear what to do.

A few tips: the directions don't suggest any particular order to assemble the parts. The sequence I followed was: first connect the middle of the four legs to the small circle support, and then connect the top of the legs to the table top. I think that if you tried to connect the pieces in a different order, it might be considerably more difficult to hold the partially assembled components together and to ease the screws into the appropriate holes.

Also, I started by connecting ALL 16 screws with a loose fit (just what I could do by hand with no tool) and then went back and tightened them with the Allen wrench provided in the kit. This allowed more maneuverability to fit the last screws into the holes.

For me (working alone, and definitely NOT a handy person) total assembly time was about 30-45 minutes to produce a table that seems quite sturdy and that will be quite attractive on my 8th-floor balcony.

I also bought the matching chairs. Compared to other patio furniture I've priced out, the set seems like good value for the money.
