This cabinet was pretty easy to put together. Some reviews stated it took two people, I’m just one person, and I did it! My only advice would be if you’re assembling it away from where it will be, assemble the bottom part first, move that into place, and then place the top part on it while it’s in place. It is very heavy when it’s fully assembled. It’s a beautiful piece, lots of storage, my one complaint is there are not cut outs in the back of the sides for molding. It’s too far away from the wall when you have wall molding with a quarter round at the bottom. Now I am trying to figure out how to cut a space in the molding without removing the entire molding piece. Other than that, it’s very nice!
