Instructions were simple, and easy to read. Took all of two hours with my compact DeWalt with a torx and phillips head bits. Finish tightening main torx screws on sides after top is on, as it settles on floor. Also, make sure slide in plywood panels are all in their respective slots, especially top two 10s, so table top is flush with the frame. Wood door/drawer panels are solid and nicely finished, with adjustable closure hardware. The table top/leaf is solid oak finger jointed, with a clear, natural finish. The casters, two front locking, are a bonus. In my opinion, this piece is very good quality, with attention to detail. Not perfect, but when its put together correctly, it looks like a nice piece of functional furniture. All parts, with some extras, and superbly packaged. Grey blue hue. Wife didnt want either end sections put on. Towel roll and knife/spice rack holder. Imo looks better without. Also put (12) 1/2 oak wood plugs in larger screw holes on both sides, six per side. Looks more finished. Added pic of side with added oak hole plugs. Will fill smaller holes with 1/8 oak dowel.
