To be clear...you have to build this, buy the 2 by 4, then make yourself a bench or table? What exactly am I paying for?

Yes, you are paying for a very unique set of table bases that allow you you use it as both a bench and a picnic table. I bought 2. Used red cedar 2x4's finished it off with marine spa varnish and have a beautiful set of benches that can be paired together to make a full size picnic bench. They are both functional and a work of art. Everyone that sees them is absolutely amazed!!! One of the best items I have ever bought on amazon ever!!!

All you have to buy is the 2X4's. What you are buying is a kit that when you are through following the easy directions it will be half of a picnic table. Then when you want just to just flip the table part and it becomes a park bench. The back of the bench is also the table when flipped back.

You are paying for the weather resistant frame to hold the wood that makes the bench.

You get the two plastic frames for one bench... no wood. With the lumber, the frame builds one bench.

It depends on your definition of a table. To attain typical picnic table, requires two benches, but if you buy one bench it will fold out to make a self standing table that looks like half a picnic table.

Is it just me, or do people really think that you can buy an umbrella net, a patio umbrella, a table and four chairs for thirty bucks?????? The price is for the NET only!

You can put it together yourself. Please don't buy this, it is very flimsy and very overpriced

we have a cedar table that is large and square....... this table can be made but it will go way up in price probably add $300 because it will need to ship freight truck that will increase the price $200 then another $100 to do a custom piece wider including time and the extra material

This item allows you to build the size bench you want. These are the legs. You provide the wood. I would caution you that if the bench gets too long the middle will get flimsy. Probably should keep it less than seven feet.

A lot. It took us days to assemble it. We received an incorrect part, called the company, and waited for the correct part. The correct part didn't have the same hole alignment, so assembly was quite difficult. Even now I'm reluctant to sit on it because I'm unsure of the sturdiness of the bench. It looks good, but....

There's no way around it, and BE CAREFUL. There is at least one point where once you assemble two pieces, there's no going back. If you do it wrong, you will have wasted your $300-$400. The entire thing becomes unusable.

You are on your own with this. You will have to purchase something from Amazon or one of the retail stores (not an expensive purchase and easily obtainable). However, I would like to emphasize that this should not be a deal breaker! The unit is great, easy to assemble - so easy that 2 college female college students - not at all handy - put this together in less than 20 minutes, and it really looks good! I had purchased another one costing more than double - with wire management for my son's apartment - and hours later, we still could not get the glass to lie level. Also, between the 2, this one looked far better and was much sturdier. You are on your own with this.

It requires quite a bit of wood for even the simple design. It was around $260 for the lumber. The more complex designs in the kit would cost extra. Also consider delivery as the main beam is a 16' 4"x6".

Hi Christina,No, you don't have to build it. It was packaged very well in two pieces. You must attach the top piece of the bar. My neighbor and I did it in less than a half hour. Enjoy if you purchase. I am very happy with it and have received compliments.

They have M&D construction set on Amazon you can buy for less than $20. It isn't exactly the same as the pieces that come with the work bench but would probably work just as well.

The item you are purchasing is the plastic legs of the bench. You need to get the 2x4's for the back and seat part of the bench. You choose how long the bench will be, Good Luck.

Hi, yes u need tools such as 2 adjustable wrenches, 1 hammer, 1 standard screwdriver and 1 phillips screwdriver inorder to assemble this bench. Assembly will be more convenient if u have a socket set, a set of open-end or close-end wrenches, or a set of ratchet wrenches.

I know, it need lot of imagination to get it assembled... gosh, I don't remember how I got it at the end, but I did reassemble a few time to get it right. ==" and the end product is ok. Sorry, I wish I could help. :(
