I panicked when I saw that no assembly instructions were in the box, so I went online to read reviews and saw someone else with same issue and they got the instructions via Wayfair. I went through the "contact us" menu and "missing instructions" was on the menu of options. Just clicked on the link and printed them...very easy! I was able to assemble this by myself, though it took about an hour. You do need to look at the pictures closely to ensure you have the frames and boards facing correctly. Once assembled it was very sturdy and it looks great! Thank you Wayfair!
