Gia Counter Set

I purchased the Ebony 5 Piece Round Dining Set. Not to confuse this with other reviews of the bar height table & chairs. I am extremely impressed with the quality of this set. It is classy looking, SOLID, well made, sturdy, easy to assemble, and is a definite value for the price! I was skeptical about buying a dining set from Amazon but this one did not disappoint. I am in my mid-50's and assembled the entire thing myself in about 2 hrs. The instructions were excellent and the whole process was very straightforward. Please note that they do not include any extra hardware, so make sure that you keep track of each nut/bolt/screw as you go. The most difficult part was carrying the top of the dining table inside the house by myself. I recommend lying it on a soft surface such as a blanket or carpet while assembling. Regarding other reviews about the chairs wobbling, I simply assembled the chair seat and legs by loosely tightening the screws/nuts/bolts by hand. Then I set the chair feet on the floor to level prior to tightening everything securely. The seat cushions were a tad more complicated as there aren't any predrilled holes for the screws. At first, as other stated, I thought that the screws were not long enough. However after I realized that they just didn't want to go through the pre-drilled holes in the frame, I just took my screwdriver and inserted it in the holes from the bottom and screwed the screwdriver for a bit in a grinding manner (with no screws in place) until the screws easily slid right through. Apply firm pressure to the seat cushion while screwing in the screws. After assembly, I did still notice a little wobble in a couple of the chairs, but when I moved them to a different part of my dining room, they did not wobble, therefore I suspect that my floor isn't perfectly level. I simply attached some cut-to-fit 3M felt glider pads (that I intended to use anyway to protect my floor) and that removed all of the tiny wobble that there previously was. Also, when applying the felt to the table feet, I noticed that the feet on the frame are actually adjustable as well! The feet are NOT adjustable on the chairs. The frame is nice Solid wood. The dark ebony color is not too dark. It's a gorgeous reddish/brown color (as can be best seen in the photo of the chair). For the price, this set is definitely a value. My last dining room set was a similar price but was not nearly as well made or attractive. The size is also perfect for my dining room area. I love the appearance of the shelf underneath and I feel that it makes the set even more sturdy, however I don't like that the chairs won't push in under the table all of the way. It also takes away some leg room when seated. However I was aware of this prior to purchase. I think the shelf gives it a little more personality and a more attractive appearance than if it were to just have 4 posts for legs. Also, the seats do not have a lot of padding, they are quite firm. However that does not detract from my ultimate satisfaction with this set. If looking for a dining set, I would definitely purchase again. UPDATE to previous review, I purchased a glass beveled edge table top for this set. For anyone considering doing this, purchase the 46" size, not 47". Due to the the scalloped edging of the table, the actual surface area is only 46". ALSO, note that the table top itself is not perfectly level! Now that I've added the glass top with rubber bumpers, I can see that only 4 of the rubber bumpers I placed (towards the center of the table) have "suctioned" to the glass and table. The bumpers do not touch the table around the edge. This means that the center of the table sits higher than the edges. I'm still going to leave my review at 5 stars simply because of the value for the money. It's still a gorgeous, sturdy set. I just am crossing my fingers the glass won't crack because of this. It's only a matter of millimeters.

Bought in Mar 2023. The set has held up beautifully. We've really enjoyed the sturdiness and attractiveness. It was easy to set up.

I highly recommend this set. The finish is excellent. Not a blemish on it. Very easy to put together. All the holes lined up and all the hardware was there. Very sturdy. I wish the top was water and heat proof.

The table and 4 chairs set are made of very good quality I highly recommend my only Disappointment was and still is that I was thinking that the table top and table was black and the chairs were black with grey seats and backing but it’s not so that was a Huge Disappointment !!! For me because my living room set is Grey with black and white pillows but I’m Always getting compliments on the dining room table and chair set

This table set is really nice, took a while to put together but once it was finished it turned out great.

Missing some hardware...specifically one nut 5/16" and one flat washer 5/16"

Very easy to assemble. Definitely need two people to lift. Looks and feels solid. Very impressed

Nice enough table. Table went together easily. Chairs were tedious to build (*hint* have someone sit on the chair cushion when you are building it or the screws won't catch). Very strong smell, hopefully will go away with time. Rating would have been better except they sent the wrong color and returning/waiting another long delivery time are not worth the hassle.

A very classy looking set and it was easy to assemble. There were a couple of seat cushions where the screws we're too short, but I replaced with longer screws and it was fine. The set is very good quality and very sturdy. The storage shelves underneath are a great idea.

I am so happy that I purchased this dining set. I like it more than I thought I would. It is very well made, and great quality. It looks very rich.

Very nice dining set, solid, very good quality and and looks very high end. Very happy with this purchase!
