This was the easiest piece of furniture I've ever assembled.  I grabbed my screwdriver before opening the box but didn't even need it.  No tools required.  It's beautiful and sturdy as well.  I love this table! The color is a little different than I was expecting but it actually matches my decor better than I thought it would.  It looked turquoise to me on my computer screen but it's actually a darker teal in person.  It also comes with a paint crayon to fill in scratches which stores nicely in the drawer.
