TOOLS REQUIRED to assemble - screw driver & drill. Disappointed that I had to get a screwdriver & a drill out to assemble this (all my other purchases didn't require this). The wood base showed tiny dots where the screws should go, but the holes were not pre-drilled. Would have taken an extremely strong arm to secure these screws without the use of a drill. So, it definitely was not as easy an assembly as my other Wayfair purchases, but it still works for me.

Fits perfectly next to fireplace. Easy to set up and very sturdy.

Easy to assemble!
