The original item gotduring transportation, and I didnt accept 1 of the boxes. It took a month to get a replacement. 
Overall it is a good quality item, tho had a defect - the corner got chipped during transportation and it is on the side that is visible.
You can assemble it yourself but a help of a friend would make the process quicker.
Instructions are quite straightforward, although all screws are again in 1 package, so I definitely spent a lot of time trying to understand what screw to use and bet a got it wrong a number of times.
