Quick and easy to assemble, especially for someone who has a broke arm and a broken elbow.  If I can do it so can you!!.  The first table arrived with minor defects; I called Customer Service offering to return the original and/or asking for replacement parts.  I was shocked when they told I could sell or scrap the original piece and that they were replacing with a new unit.  There needs to be more customer service like this in our country,  Kudos to Birch Lane.  The new unit arrived within a week - damage free.  I can’t wait to put it in its bedroom.  Perfect night stand for a guest bedroom.  However right now it is serving as a lazy lady living room table (my home is being painted, new flooring put in and the yard is a total nightmare !  Life goes on :)). Thank you Birch Lane for being a dependable constant in my upside down life
