First how this came delivered. Wrapped up in black bags and bubble wrap. No branded packaging (probably a good thigh with a name like "prego" which is slang for pregnant).

The instructions is for a different table with different parts and legs. Not the end of the world, but it added to the oddity. Comes with instructions for chairs as well (not supplied). Parts numbers is also wrong (labels 3 legs even though there is both 4 provided and 4 on images) making for a confusing set of instructions. Wording isn't great but compounded by it being instructions for a different table. I've knocked one star off for this and the weird packaging (too lazy for a cardboard box really?). On an extra note it gave enough caps for the inner screws but then didn't give anything for the lid screws, so they will rust with time and make it difficult to take apart.

The other star knocked off I think has to be for the price, yes it's coated metal, but over a �100 for a small garden table with no chairs, it's spenny. No glass top on it either, so although the pattern is nice it is full of holes on the top.

So the good stuff which gets a star each:
It is sturdy.
It's coating can take the rain so no rust (except for the exposed bolts, but hey, let's hope you never have to take it apart again)
It's a nice pattern for black garden furniture and will make it stand out in most settings.

It's 3 stars but it's a good 3 stars, if it was out of 10 I would give it 7, but the mix mash of instructions and parts of different items and the way it arrived has to knock it down.

Easy to put together.
Black coated aluminium so won�t rust.
Quality item
Bistro table for 2 but ok for 4
Chairs purchased separately but any colour would suit
Fits a small space even a balcony.
Good investment.
