Had the worst time assembling this table. It started off simple but once we got to the shelves and inner partition it started going wrong. Pieces weren't lining up and when we finally thought we'd fixed that, we then found that the top wouldn't fit. We had remove a wood dowel and some screws from the middle of the table to finally get the top to fit. This was an extremely frustrating experience. It looks fine now but it shouldn't  have taken hours to complete this.
