I basically built this by myself (except for lifting the top part onto the bottom) but would definitely recommend having someone help you since it’ll go faster. Took me ~6hrs from prep to finish with some adjustments here and there. Instructions could be a little better but honestly not bad at all. Looks gorgeous from afar and I’m relatively happy with it! 4 stars because there were lots of little scratches and nicks around the pieces, but overall I’m pretty satisfied with it.
