The metal pegs that are used in the locking system were TOO small for the hole. I highly suggest to screw these in by hand. I used a battery operated drill and because the holes were too small the fast turning easily ruined so many holes and bulked the area around the hole or chipped away the painted area from the chip board. This was the most frustrating part of putting this console table together.
I also had to ask for a replacement part for the drawer because one piece was missing in the box because they put in 2 of the wrong boards. Such a hassle but this kind of table cannot be found anywhere else and in the finished stage it is nice.
BE VERY CAREFUL IN PUTTING THIS ITEM TOGETHER
