I was able to put this together solo and very quickly. It looks just as beautiful as in the photo. The one issue I had was with the hardware - there are 4 screws with black bases that go into each of the 4 legs, one of those screws was damaged such that it would not screw into the any of the legs. I improvised and used a spare screw and then stuck something beneath to compensate for the missing black base and keep the table from wobbling. Looks great and you can’t tell at all.
