Q: How difficult is it to assemble... is it possible to get a look at the instructions?
A: No instructions were included in our box. Pretty inconvenient.
submitted byValerie - 5 years agoA: HARD... the instructions are not stright forward and it's annoying
submitted byImani - 6 years agoA: My desk came with instructions and it was the easiest one I have ever assembled. The drawer is already done and in tact with the top of the desk. All you will assemble are the legs and support bar. Super duper easy!

Q: What tools do I need to put this together?
A: Philips and a flat head screw driver. That's it.
submitted byMelissaE77 - 5 years agoA: Hi Victoria - What a great desk to help you get your work done. The tools needed for assembly are included in the packaging. Hope this helps, thanks! - Shelly
submitted byShelly - 8 years agoTarget staff supportA: Target Staff are incorrect. The 3 tools are listed above.
submitted byAnything - 4 years agoA: The last answer is wrong. You need a Philips head screwdriver for the cam lock system and to put the handle on the drawer. That said, I had to return this desk twice due to damaged parts. All ordered were site to store pickup. I would get something better if I were you.
