The table was very easy to put together. I purchased this table to be used as a bedside table. The reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because it is very lightweight, and it wobbles despite being put together correctly. I tried to move it to different areas of the room just to confirm it wasnt a floor issue. Since it wobbles you wouldnt really be comfortable putting a glass of water on the table. In my opinion, it is not very functional and not meant for meaningful use but could be used as a decorative piece in a tiny space.
