Fairly easy to assemble,although I had to guess on several joints and I used the a cam instead of a stud and ruined the cam twice. Definitely looks the part in our mid-mid living room, but can’t really “hold it’s liquor”-area not tall enough for full-sized bottles. One part was improperly labeled, but by process of elimination determined it’s place on the cabinet. (Glad I used to teach woodshop, and had a screw gun with tips…)
