I bought this not realizing how heavy it would be and I thought it would be hard to assemble so I let it sit in the delivery box it came in for at least three weeks before tackling it. When I finally started, I was surprised at how well it was packed and therefore difficult to remove from the box. It took me at least 30 minutes. Once it came out of the box, I had to laugh at my procrastination because there was literally NOTHING to assemble. The legs are attached and you simple unfold them. Voila! Done deal. Plastic caps for the legs are provided so that you don’t scratch your floors. It is a solid piece of furniture. Looks very mid century in color and style. I wish the storage compartments had doors or could be closed in some way for a neater look.
