Perfect, my son and had it together in one day.
My husband and I are not builders, and this made the process of building a table so easy! I loved the shopping list, very convenient.
We only had a few issues...
There are two sizes of needed screws listed, but rarely are sizes mentioned in the actual build. We could've got by with a box of one size I think.
At the "put the boards on top" stage, it tells you to put both outside boards on the edges, then fill in the middle. Luckily we measured first, because our boards are slightly bigger than listed. At the end of the pack it does mention board variations, but of course I hadn't read that far yet!
Overall great product, easy to follow!
Thank you, product was great.
Well built 8' table - good instructions
A great value for the detailed and easy to follow picnic table plan. It was delivered online in a PDF which worked perfectly.
