I bought this for my daughter's room and i put it together myself with no assistance the instructions have very clear pictures but they are not very detailed actually there are no written instructions so I will fill in the blanks and in no way am i trying to micromanage, so you will need to pay very close attention to holes in the pictures you will build this upside down but it will face the correct way so watch the unfinished pieces they should face the back and the back covering pieces you will slide should be white not brown .I enjoyed building this i hope you do to
