I should have read the negative reviews on this dresser before purchasing. I've assembled lots of things before, and this was by far the most difficult and frustrating. The directions provided were unclear - at one point the directions tell you to flip the dresser over, causing the whole thing to collapse. Tried to assemble twice with no success - the first time the beams didn't line up. The company sent replacement parts, but that didn't help. I eventually gave up. Don't waste your money, time or effort.
