This TV stand comes pretty much assembled. It just requires the legs to be put on , which was simple. It is such a great piece. It looks just like I hoped and it feels well made. The only warning I would give is to check the depth/measurements of the drawers. I didn't check first and I thought I'd be able to store a bunch of DVDs in there, but they're pretty small. However, that is my mistake as the measurements are all clearly advertised and I did not check. Overall, I recommend this piece!
