FOR THE MOST PART IT WAS PRETTY SIMPLE TO ASSEMBLE-HOWEVER THERE WERE NO GUIDES ON THE BOTTOM SIDE FOR THE TOP OF TABLE--IT WAS EITHER MEASURE YOURSELF OR EYEBALL-SHOULDN'T THERE BE GUIDE MARKING TO ASSEMBLE EASIER--THE LAST PART WAS A PAIN AND TOOK SOME OF THE JOY OF THE TABLE AWAY---ALSO PLEASE PROVIDE AT LEAST ONE ADDITIONAL SCREW/DOWEL WITH EACH PACK..DOWEL BROKE AND I DROPPED ONE SCREW-LUCKY I FOUND IT..BUT HAVING AN EXTRA WOULD BE GREAT...ALL IN ALL I DO LOVE THE TABLE

I could not have found a better piece of table. It is very fresh and natural with a simple and useful design. The lower shelf is great for the newspapers and the top perfect for serving. Thank you so much.
