This review is from: 5 Piece Colby Dining Set - Euro Cherry (Kitchen)
The table is built solid, very heavy and looks great. However, one of the chair cushions arrived slightly dirty and it is difficult to separate both halves of the table in order to bring the extension leaf up and out. The chairs are also built well. There is some assembly required, but it mainly consists of screwing legs to the tables and chairs. Overall, a great product!

I looked everywhere locally for a set this size, but all I found was junk. I bought this set hoping the previous buyer's review was accurate, and it certainly was. The table is solid, heavy and beautiful. The chairs are precisely what I was looking for. Putting this set together wasn't difficult, but learning how to operate the self-storing leaf took a little work. I would've liked written instructions explaining it, but we eventually figured it out. There was a small problem with one table leg, but I received a replacement 2 days after I e-mailed customer service. This set was precisely what I've been looking for, well-made, the right size, and nice looking. I'm very pleased.
I'm amazed and pleasantly surprised,

I was looking for a small 5 piece set and went to Crawford, Ashley, Sears, and 4 other local stores and came up with two possibilities. The Crawford 5 piece was best at $1200 and the other 5 piece was not as nice at $1600. Both more than I wanted to spend plus 6 weeks delivery. So I tried Amazon and noticed the 4&5 star ratings from dinette.com. Went to their web site and saw their 5 piece Colby set in light maple. It was just the size I was after and it looked great.
I don't like to buy over the internet and especially sight unseen but I took a chance and I'm glad I did.
This is not cheap junk, it's an inexpensive quality 5 piece set. It is solid rubber wood from Malaysia and I mean solid. It's very dense and heavy. I googled rubber wood and everything I read about it was positive.
You can see from the underside of the table and chairs that's it is heavy duty bracing. The table legs are attached with 2 screws each, not one. The eight screws attach...Read more
