We bought this unit for a small guest bedroom. My husband put it together in just under two hours, by himself. He said it really wasn't difficult, just a lot of pieces. It was missing a dowel, but he made one that worked, rather than wait for one to arrive. Besides that small glitch, it takes up less space than we thought it would--as we didn't have to move the bed over (win-win). The storage inside the doors is great, as well as the outer storage. We have a 42" TV on the stand. Looks great too!
