The table itself looks great once put together.  But, as other reviewers have noted, the instructions are not good at all.  In fact, they are downright poor.  I would strongly suggest that you put in the small shelf #2 before you tighten the screws for the top, as there is some give there. Tighten the top too early, and you might find there's not enough space for the small shelf.  I've built a lot of furniture made of dowels, cam locks, etc., and this was one of the least user-friendly sets of instructions I've come across.  Also definitely requires 2 people to make sure everything lines up.
