I also wanted side tables with a drawer to utilize and a set of two that match is a bonus.To Start: All you need are scissors, Philips screwdriver and flathead screw driver, total time to put together is about 15-20 min.Packaging:The product comes well packaged and with two boxes strapped together. I would start by pulling everything out and checking the product to ensure that everything is accounted for in the box. My tables arrived with no damage and foam packing between the wood pieces to prevent scratches. Note: When removing the pieces take care with scissors to not damage the enclosed product. Also, when you pull the pieces out of the package, I would suggest placing them on a soft surface while you work so you do not scratch the wood.Instructions:The instructions are well detailed and show photos on how to place everything together. BE SURE to follow the instructions in order and pay attention to where the holes in the boards are placed so it is placed together properly.Building:While placing the product together use HAND HELD PRODUCTS do not use electric tools or you could over tighten or strip the parts. Everything is predrilled and it is simple to hand tighten.NOTE: WHEN YOU ARE PLACING THE DRAWER CAPS ON THE INSIDE OF THE DRAWER DO IT AFTER THE DRAWER IS IN THE TABLE OR YOU COULD DAMAGE THE PRODUCT.Quality:These have a nice dark brown almost black finish. They do not easily mark from liquids but I would still suggest utilizing coasters. I haven’t had an issue with scratching or bubbling which was an initial concern from other reviews, but I have had no problem and I have a toddler who spills everything!The drawer knob is a nice touch because it provides a modern look to the table, also the bottom shelf fits a normal square storage cube snugly.Overall, I am happy with the tables. They are simple to put together and offer a nice solution to matching side tables that don’t get ugly watermarks. I have had them set up for a while and I have seen no changes in how they look. I don’t place harsh chemicals on them so I only use water to wipe them down to protect them, I would suggest the same to preserve the quality. They are a convenient and nice addition to our room!

Overall easy to assemble. Assembled by myself (and a 4 month old) in under an hour. The material feels good, however, several pieces had damaged paint. Not happy, but not worth returning.

I wanted small nightstands with a drawer--these fit the bill. My seven year old granddaughter assembled them, honestly! They are nice little nightstands! One issue I do find is that the paint chips easily and white shows through--I just touched it up with a permanent black marker and all was well!

pretty cheap quality - not as expected. I'd have returned it but after the sunk cost of putting it all together - it comes in a ton of pieces, btw (assembly was a real pain), I just didn't have it in me to break it down and return. Pretty disappointing and I wish Amazon would do a better job of screening for quality.

This set is cute and good for the price, but they are quite small. One of the nightstands was damaged/chipped on the top surface, but after putting in an Amazon A to Z claim, I was able to contact the Seller and get a replacement part for the damaged piece. I'm happy with them for my guest room.

Not the best quality but good for the price and small spaces.

Tables were easy to assemble and do their job. The only minor downside is that drawer (and the table itself) is kinda small. But all measurements are on the picture from the seller so I have nothing to complain about here.

I love these cute little night stands. They weren’t terrible to assemble, and the fit perfectly next to my bed. This is a great value.
