I purchased this table for its modern look and size since I have a small living room.  While it fit the bill, it was not easy to assemble.  It had a lot of pieces and it took my husband well over 8 hours to put it together.  What added to this problem was that a number of the screw holes were not properly counter sunk and he had to do additional drilling and go to the hardware store and buy longer screws to finish the assembly and make it work.  This table was a second choice as my first one was not available until May 1, and I needed a coffee table.  My first choice was cheaper than this model but, if this is an example of the workmanship from this manufacturer, I will not be buying anything else made by this company.
