This is my 1st time ordering furniture on line that needs to be put together.If i were in a store looking at it i probably wouldnt have bought it,seems light weight and like it wont have long before i.ll be replacing it with a solid wood bedroom set for the same price and some places cheaper.Its for my 5 
yr old bedroom with the loft bed and tall chest to match.Hopefully we get 5 yrs out of it.1 1/2 to put together,pretty easy.
