The assembly did take about 3 hours, but was even quicker with the help of two people. The instructions weren’t too hard to follow, but did take a bit to study. Overall it is a great vanity to have! It fits well in a corner and has plenty of leg room underneath. I love that it has an outlet for two and two usb connections. The compartment space is nice for each drawer and the space on top is even better. The light is actually bright and the three settings are very night. Especially being able to adjust the brightness to your liking. Fortunately I got lucky and my product arrived undamaged. My only concern in the long run is how long the mirror’s led light will last before it burns out.
