Hayden Nightstand, True Black Oak

This Mainstays Nightstand has the clean lines and Espresso color that made it ideal to add to our bedroom. It comes with easy, step by step instructions for us Weekend DIYers. All you need are 3 tools: Two screwdrivers and a hammer. It was simple to put all the boards (A through F) together with its "cam-lock" system to hold everything in place. Screw in the cam bolts, drop in the cam locks, insert the wooden dowels (I did this by hand), assemble then tighten the locks, brackets and screws. I left the back panel (G) to nail on at the end. To make this go a little bit faster: 1. Allow yourself plenty of room to spread out. 2. Open and unpack your box. Check that you have each piece you need and take this time to divide your cam bolts, locks, dowels, brackets and screws between the different boards. It will save you "hunting" for them after you start. 3. Work on a padded surface. I used a thick towel over carpeting. This protected the boards themselves and it also kept my tools within easy reach. Half an hour later, I had my own brand new, pretty impressive nightstand!

I love my night table!! I put it together; easy to do if you have the right tools. Made sure I followed the instructions and their visual diagrams were very helpful. It is a sturdy item and has weight which is important. It was due to arrive on the 29th and I received it yesterday. Wonderful service!
