Love this bar! It was so easy to assemble (I did it by myself in about 2 hrs) and I'm impressed they even included an anchoring kit in case you have kids. I would recommend having a power drill on hand to speed up assembly. Also, I'd note that the color is a darker espresso than the picture shows, it's closer to black than the warm, dark brown as shown, which actually was perfect because it matched my other espresso furniture much better than anticipated.
