All parts intact, extra Hardware was included so no shortage of screws or locknuts:  i recommend using a set of pliers, in some cases a power screwdriver and some wood glue and an extra allen wrench for your second person to help also.  Great pictorial instructions, a great help.  Probably took us in all 4 hours to fully assemble and put in place, good and sturdy, use of some wood glue was a bit key.  Great addition to our kitchen!
