I would have loved to have given this a 5 star because at the end of the day it's a really solid piece of furniture, and I was pleasantly surprised how sturdy it turned out to be. That being said, it is NOT the easiest thing to put together as the instructions are harder to follow than Egyptian hieroglyphics. The pictograms are small and you'll have to spend time on figuring them out or you will think you have it right then have to do things a second time. I've had lots of experience putting together furniture like this but there were a couple times I struggled. The instructions also say that 2 people should put it together (I put it together myself) which I wouldn't do unless you want to end up in an argument, not speaking to one another and giving each other dirty looks the rest of the day. LOLOL
Overall......great value for the money
