The tables themselves are adorable and come completely assembled. The top is wrapped in a thin plastic which I will remove ifwhen it gets damaged. You have to put the stand together, the directions are just a picture, no words, but I did it fairly easily.  It does seem a little wobbly but I may just have to tighten the screws more.  Wayfairs price was the best I found by 30. I am completely pleased with these.
