This item arrives in many pieces but has clear instructions for assembly. If you have basic mechanical skills and can follow pictured instructions you can assemble this in under 2 hours. If you do not have those skills pay extra for the professional assembly.  My assembled cabinet looks great and works well inside my entryway closet, holding my boots in the cabinet on the left, gloves and scarfs, and dog coats and leashes. The perfect solution to years of clutter!
