Good quality for price point & assembly instructions were solid. Put all 3 pieces together mostly by myself -- did call in an assist for 1 step of coffee table to make it go faster, but one could do it on their own. At this price, you're getting laminate, not solid wood, but the wood grain pattern on the laminate is nice and I really like the charcoal color vs solid black. The design & edges lend itself to a more expensive look that other "ready-to-assemble" pieces and I've already gotten compliments on it. The narrow but long end tables were what sold us on this one. Needed a narrow width to fit between 2 recliners but the depth that nearly equals the recliners made it fit the space so much better than tables that are narrow in both directions. Very happy with the look and a budget-friendly price point. Packaging was great -- it's HEAVY but everything arrived in good condition.
