If you read some of the other reviews, you may notice that this unit does not come with any instructions, which is probably the only downside. That being said, if you have had any experience putting together a piece of furniture, it really is easy to figure out how to assemble this. My advice would be to lay everything out and examine each piece before you begin to assemble.

As for cons, the color of the seat was more beige than I expected from looking at the photo. But for the price, it is to be expected.
