This basket has about 7 pieces in the box and took about three total minutes to put together. No tools needed (except a knife to cut the zip ties). The basket looks great once put together. The chains and the bottom rings that connect the chains to the main middle bar are very loud when they clank together. While this is in no way a deal breaker, the noise is just too much for my backyard's proximity to so many other homes. NOT a big deal out in a field.The basket has a great weight and seems very sturdy in the grass. There are some metal stakes included for extra security as well. The price seemed great to me. I was not expecting such a good quality basket and was very pleasantly surprised. I just need to let my friends play on it to make it easy to convince them to buy one too.
