The table took about 20 minutes to put together. All the pieces came with the desk along with the tool to put together.  The quality seems well for partical wood and the metal base. Its not heavy and moves easily. It is smaller then I thought it would be but will look great behind the love seat with decorative pieces for on top and wooden baskets on the bottom. I love the darker wood for this piece. You can use it as a desk, entry way or behind furniture to add some flare to a room.
