My son in law put it together so I can't comment on that part but I can say this is a very good look mg piece of furniture. I have a coastal home and now will work from home so I wanted something I can have on the enclosed sunroom so I can enjoy the view without having a heavy or dark piece of furniture  and this is perfect! Small but enough to hold a two monitor stand and storage for a laptop and stationary. Bought this on Black Friday for a great deal. I am excited to start using my new little office corner. Shipping was free and timely.
