Very easy to put together - just follow the instructions! BUT this is the second item from Wayfair that I've ordered where the pegs/screws are misaligned. I like the desk, and it works great, but out of the 8 screws I was supposed to put in to attach the desk to the top of the frame, only 2 worked. Only TWO. Like hello. It doesn't seem to be affecting the desk so far, but I would prefer that I could at least screw it together properly, to prevent it from sagging in the future. And honestly, it would be too much of a hassle to return, due to the size. Just a warning.
