It went together very easily.  It was missing some little plugs to cover the screws, but the hardware store had something similar to work, not a perfect match, but I was satisfied with the hardware plugs.  I would have like to have had a little wire/metal circle on the sides to hold umbrellas too.  I like it and it looks good.  Works for what I wanted it for.  Any scratches or dents it gets add character.  :)  I like character.  

Pros: fits space perfectly, went togeter easily
Cons: missing parts (I expected that since others said the same thing about this product.)
