Review on Monarch Specialties 3253, Dark Taupe Chrome Accent Metal Base C-Table by Jeff Salvino

The table looks good. It's what I expected and it's solid for the low price. But the instructions are a joke. Page 1 shows all parts. The 2 pieces look exactly the same and are unmarked (top and bottom frame) but have slightly different holes. A little bit. You can't tell which end is up until you're done assembling it. There are 2 steps on the instruction page. Step 1 - Assemble the frame. It shows a small picture in very fine detail showing all the parts of the frame and the names of the screws for each hole. But you can't tell exactly which hole they're talking about because the diagram isn't very clear. The only reason I could figure it out was because the 2 legs have 2 screws instead of 1 screw. So I started with that and started guessing what hole others would place based on the picture of the finished product. Level 2 is placed on top. This was easy because when I figured out how to assemble the frame legs there was only one end left with 4 holes for the top screws. Once I had to disassemble the frame because part of the frame was upside down. The holes looked the same on both sides, but there were 2 more holes on one side than the other)
