The huge box was delivered by UPS within a one-man show, treated fairly listless on the transport routes and looked accordingly from disfigured. In addition to many holes in the outer carton also one of the four protective corners was broken - but the table itself was undamaged. Lucky! Provide transportation handles or handholds on board or commission a delicate stringed forwarding: My suggestion to the manufacturer.
Stand Assembly
With a few simple steps the table is mounted. The entire ensemble consists of only six parts: table top, folding frame and four identical connecting elements between the plate and foot. A short installation manual is included. However, you should make only two of the challenge of building. The tabletop is in fact heavy and bulky. To assemble you best to start with the head lying on the plate (upside down). The surprisingly dainty foot is attached in a few minutes. By means of an adjusting screw on one of the four pillars, you can compensate for unevenness of the ground surface rapidly.
For space-saving putting away the foot does not have to be completely dismantled. You only need to connect the four shoes freak (possibly with the aid of a light hammer and a protective Hartholzbrettchens) and can tilt the table top 90 degrees thereafter. The tubular steel frame disappears completely behind.
Appearance and comfort
The specially coated tabletop ("Puroplan") is smooth, but suggests a slate-like structure. It looks very elegant and still looks serious. The table has a very good road holding and could take in an accelerated pace some curve. The tubular steel frame convinces with its intelligent design, the legs and knees of seated at the table people can largely to spare. Six guests can easily toasting each other or take solid food at this table.

Summary
Apart from the transportation problem (when shipping via a shipping company) this terrace or garden table is a real gem - with no apparent weaknesses or deficiencies. The manufacturer has m. E. adequately taken precautions for a shatterproof shipping. However, there is a herb against the ruthlessness and brutality gefrusteter forwarding driver barely. If you want to save trouble and time delay (by complaints, etc.), you should obtain this product in the relevant trade - provided you have adequate transportation. In a VW Golf sedan z. B. This table barely fits into it!
