I have put together a lot of furniture items, so this should have been a breeze. While the instructions can be a bit vague at times, using only pictures to guide you, they get the job done. The overall process would have been simpler had the hardware fit properly. I thought it was the holes were too big, but when taken apart, I was able to tighten the screws in the holes with no issue. It was that once both pieces were together, the screw wasnt long enough. The base was so unsteady, I wasnt going to even use this; however, my husband grabbed some longer screws from his box and that tightened everything up enough to stabilize it. The process was so frustrating and took longer than it should have as I spent so much time verifying I had the right bag of screws, taking it apart, trouble shooting, putting it back together, looking for wood glue, etc. Beautiful, sturdy modern design
Functions and looks nice
