Just finished assembling my Reno pool table and playing our first game. I did all the assembly by myself, my wife help me turn the base over and setting the top in place. It took about 2 hours total to assemble the table and was very easy to do. I gave this table 5 stars based on the price and ease of assembly.  You can't compare it to a 5000$ slate table but if you are looking for a low range priced table I would recommend this table. I'm very happy with it and it plays well.
