I have seen a lovely set of two reclining chairs, foot rests and a table from The Range, for my newly built garden, but like most of their stuff it needs assembly. I am just wondering how easy the task is. The Keter shed I bought took the team practically all day.
Thanks.
I don’t plan on getting them back, but wonder if a person with diy and practical skills would best be employed. Or if a weakling like me could do it.
Hey, I feel your pain. Unfortunately I’m not available to help.
I’d note a couple of things. A shed can be a bit of a b*gger to assemble. You need to get the foundations in place and the base square. Even that, the square base, can be troublesome. Then it is not a case of slotting bolt B into hole R. It is proper assembly with some level of cutting to size and retro-fitting.
A chair on the other hand, can be tricky but usually you just follow the instructions. My experience of problems with such things is (1) the instructions are tiny, unclear and tricky to see which bit is which - or which way round each bit needs to be. Study, study, study the diagram - check for how many holes on each side, what other indicators are that its this way up or down. (2) Mostly assemble without screwing tight or gluing in. Then you can track back to the error. (3) You mention two chairs. Make one. That will take time. Then use that info to quickly make the second.
The guys had problems with the Keter shed assembly, saying the instructions weren’t clear. And then saying the plastic strips joining panels together weren’t straight enough, or needed bending. I just worry that Inorder the set and still end up getting someone in, paying them. Thanks for your response.
