For the price, it was unexpectedly involved to assemble this end table. Thankfully I purchased two, because one box was MISSING instructions and the other was MISSING the necessary hex key for assembly. Assembly was not difficult, just time consuming with lots of hardware. 
One of the tabletops came with a slight defect as well. Overall, they look decent in the space, but I do not anticipate these lasting a move, or aging well with typical wear/tear.
