We received a mail order living room furniture from Amazon.com. It was easy to assemble and I have enjoyed it ever since. The steps below show how the installation was accomplished. 

This post shows the nine steps on how to assemble living room side table.

Step 1: Fig.1 through fig.4 shows the unpacking of the living room side table. Fig.1 shows the box arrived from Amazon.com and ready to be assembled. Fig.2 shows a lined box that held the wood furniture. Fig.3 shows the carton box and Styrofoam that provided the protection for the living room side table. Fig.4 shows the side table being removed from the box.
