Bought this last week. It really is quite nice, but none of the holes match up and it takes hours to build!

I'd urge caution. I saw something similar in B&M and they had a set up on display. It was horrible quality. M&S had their own set up it was much nicer although double the price but better value in my opinion

My missus wanted a garden sofa. The £150 one at B&M felt rather tacky, almost like childrens play toys. When you sit on the middle sofa you find the cushion is extremely thing and there is a lot of give on the bass. I think I preferred the wooden bench option they had as at least it was solid. I really wish that wasnt the case! She said she'd probably never use it and found a great one on Amazon that was around £380. There was no way we were gonna get that!
I dug around a bit and found the exact same quality Rattan sofa being sold by the manufacturer themselves in China and bought it for around £176 delivered. It will take a month to deliver. My point is there are better value Rattans out there. I would imagine you could pick this set up for £100 if you looked around or the more premium ones for just a bit more than this costs.

I didn't find it bad. Took an hour and the holes lined up well as long as you left the bolts slightly loose until you'd hand started them all. The only delay was the fact Argos sent me two of box one!!!
