Easy to assemble.  I ordered 2.  One was perfect, all parts included, instructions, etc.  The second box was clearly a return.  Someone had painted white (that didn't match the white wood very well) over a couple of spots where scratches/chips had occured and it was missing instructions, the white pencil, the allen wrench, and one of the gromets (luckily I had an extra that fit so I didn't have to wait to be sent another one).  Table is very sturdy and looks good in my guest bedroom.  I know I could have returned the 2nd one, and I probably should have since I paid full price, but why are they even shipping products to me that are clearly not new?  Other than that little blip, the table itself is nice and strong, and serves its purpose.  

Pros: very sturdy, super easy to assemble
Cons: scratches easily
