I wasn't sure about ordering tables that I had to put together, and the low price made me wonder if I should consider purchasing them. I'm glad that I took the chance. I was looking for smaller tables than we had, and I kept going back to look at the description of these tables and finally decided to go for it.The pieces were packaged very well, and every piece was numbered. All of the pieces as well as the screws and dowells were very well marked and everything was there. All I needed was a screwdriver.The directions were easy enough to follow. Just keep in mind there are a lot of pieces, so the process of assembling these tables requires time and patience.When I finished assembling the tables, my husband took out the old tables and we got these in place. These tables are smaller than what we had, giving us more leg room, and our living room looks bigger.We are very happy with these tables and highly recommend them.
