This was a breeze to put together. Every tool except a rubber mallet was included. It took two of us about 30 minutes to assemble, but we have assembled quite a few items with similar directions. The frame is gold colored and very sturdy. The top is white. It will be easy to clean. The photos show it in our dining room because it is larger than we thought. We like it a lot, but it will not fit in the living room space. Moving it upstairs. 
Definitely recommend, but pay attention to dimensions.
