The legs were easy to attach, but the shelf. Im usually able to assemble small to medium furnishings without too much trouble, but this product has defeated me. The pre/drilled screw holes for attaching the brackets were not deep enough and in one case totally missing. I got out my drill to solve the problem and discovered the wood is extremely hard. Admittedly, I am a petite 67 yo woman / and could not drill much further into the wood. I am going to hire a (strong) handy man who (hopefully) will be more successful. The screws themselves are of poor quality, and easy to strip. Which might not be a problem if the holes were drilled correctly. But it looks nice!
