I loved this table when I first saw it and wanted it immediately. Unfortunately I didn't read the rating for assembling it, which was DIFFICULT.  When I saw that all the pieces had to be put together....not just a few, I knew I was in trouble. I still love the looks of it, but haven't even completed the assembly. When I think I've got it...I discover I have put a piece in upside down or some other idiotic something I have done. I can't even tell you how many times I have unscrewed and screwed the screws back in and out. I'm a determined person though. Have to be since I suffer from dyslexia. Glad to hear for some it was easy.  Not true for me.
