A pain in the you know where to put together. I like it now that it is put together but I wanted to drop kick the thing multiple times while assembling. The legs screw in with some pocket screws and were okay to do. The drawer was basic and easy. The problem was the curved side panels. They are supposed to slide into grooves on the side of the legs and the bottom of the drawer circle piece. All slots on legs aligned with circle piece slot except for one leg (on both sides of the leg). I ended up having to chisel out a bit on both sides to be able to get the curved side pieces in. In addition, the curved pieces are not the same curve as the slots, so after you get it slid into the side leg slots, you have to pull and work it to try and get it to go into the bottom slot of the circle piece and it will often just pop out of the slide slots before you can get that done. This happened with all three sides. Totally aggravating but it is pretty now that it is put together.
