Monarch Specialties 3095 Table, 3pcs, Small, 30" Round, Kitchen, Metal, Laminate, Black, Grey, Contemporary, Modern Dining Set, 30" L x 30" W x 30" H

I was very excited to receive this item, it's a great price and the display photo makes it look like a very nice small table. It looks decent in my studio and is the perfect price/shape/size, however it does look a little cheaper than the display photo. Not a huge deal, you get what you pay for. One thing that made me very happy was that you DO NOT need a drill to set this up as some reviews have stated.Here's what you need:-Phillips head screwdriver (the chair/table tops need to be screwed in-A hammer (there are no "guides" to screw the table top and chair tops into, a hammer helps get things started. Some things may be damaged and require hammering)Here's what is nice to have:-A ruler/tape measure (the chair and table tops again have no guide - this is to help make things look nice. I found the table should be 5.5 inches in from each end)-A drill (would admittedly make things easier)Here's what's included:-Allen wrench-Small wrench-All the little pieces to make your table setThe whole setup took about an hour. The reasons this item didn't get the full 4 stars from me are:1 - One of the (metal) chair legs arrived significantly dented in. It looks okay when assembled, though the chair is now wobbly2 - Part of the chair set-up (where it screws in to the seat) was extremely bent out of place. Needed to be hammered into submission.3 - One of the areas a screw needed to go in was blocked more than it should have been. Some muscle and hammer needed to be applied to make it work4 - Multiple screws got completely stripped by the allen wrench during assembly. That means that you get ONE chance to put this set together right, and you won't be able to disassemble/reassemble when moving.5 - There are no guides to screw in the top of the chairs/table. Not a huge deal, but it would make assembly much easier and make it look much better.6 - During assembly one of the chair pads got messed up in the corner by just sitting the chair down to put in some screws. It's cheap, and it won't last so longOverall, the set is cheap and relatively easy to assemble, but feels like a step down from some sort of Ikea product. The instructions are even similar (though not as detailed), and it's definitely not going to last a very long time. It looks pretty good for the price, but not quite as nice as the photo. I am happy with it as a temporary table for two in a studio apartment, but I wouldn't put it in a nice house.

First let me say this is an interim breakfast table & chairs until another sturdier set is located. For the value, it is "okay". I thought I could put this product together singlehandedly, yet that was not to happen. After I had the table frame and chairs together, they wobbled, failed to set level on the floor, and were cattywampus. My daughter & I disassembled each item and then, with the two of us assisting each other, were able to bring this bistro set to a more usable state, yet it appears there is one leg a fraction shorter on each chair and table as I have had to put an extra felt pad on to correct the unevenness.It is a great item for small spaces and the design is acceptable - I was hopefully it could be more permanent item in my now smaller kitchen.

This table and chair set was so easy to assemble. I was missing a part and received a replacement within 2 days. Awesome customer service!

This is a cute set for a small apartment space or a kitchen breakfast table. Wouldn't have it as the main piece in a house but it's good value for the price.Table top finish looks nice although was slightly chipped in one place on arrival. Didn't consider this bad enough to return, although will see how long the tabletop stays in decent condition.Soldering on chair frames leaves a little to be desired but these joints are not particularly visible once the chairs are put together, and again, given the price, to be expected.As many reviews have mentioned, there are no holes or markings for screws for the seat cushions or the tabletop, which is inconvenient and means you have to measure it out. Screws do go in with a screwdriver if you're able to put in some elbow grease, however a drill would make things considerably easier. Putting the rest of the frames together with the provided allen key is pretty simple.UPDATE: Table is still in good condition. Being at home all the time during COVID led to the chairs actually breaking from accidentally leaning back on them. I suppose the cheaply soldered joints were not particularly designed to withstand long use... also noted that the seat cushions are relatively thin and so do not stay comfortable for long. So, the set is fine for occasional and brief use e.g. as a breakfast table, but not for anything more.

We purchased this for my mom's suite in a memory care facility back in February of 2020. It was awesome! She raved about how it on our daily phone calls saying it was just the right size, it was pretty and not overpowering saying how much she loved her Bistro Table and Chairs. As for ease of assembly? I assume it wasn't too hard since I never heard from the staff that they had a problem putting it together. Probably easy enough needing just some sort of screw driver. All pieces were in the box, too!If you're looking for something that will fit into a nice smaller space, maybe a patio, maybe a smaller kitchen area, this is a great set that I don't think you'll be disappointed with.Update. Sadly, since we purchased this set, my mom passed away from Covid. We told the facility to please quarantine and disinfect the set and to please give it to someone else there who could get use out of it. They have and we received a really nice thank you note from that family.
