As any TV floor stand, there is a lot of assembly required. The instructions are straightforward for most of the process, but there are a few places where you'll have to make a choice with no guidance from the instructions.For example, when putting the main support into the base, you can decide to use four screws instead of six (as shown in the instructions) to make your stand slightly taller. Maybe 1-2 inches. This will come at the cost of stability and reliability, especially if your TV is large and or heavy.It gets the most confusing once you get to the part where you mount the rails onto the back of your television. Essentially, if you have a flat screen with no curvature in the back, you can use the screws directly without washers.The most important thing is that the logo on the support pillar should be facing away from the direction the TV screen will be facing. It's confusing because you always think a logo should be facing you so it's seen. It confused us and we had to redo a step because of this!Overall, this is a good stand and comes together nicely.
