My husband helped me put it together, but honestly I would have done the whole thing myself. It's easy and everything you need is in the box. Our 55" TV is the perfect size for it, and it looks fresh in our living room. The dark wood stain compliments the black metal frame. Seriously, for the price, including free shipping, we are thrilled with this gorgeous and solid piece of furniture. Yay! I done good by making the right choice out of scores of other TV stands and cabinets! Highly recommend!
