This took a while to put together as expected (about 3-12 hours), but I was the only one doing it. The directions say it takes two people, but it’s totally doable by yourself by stacking books to hold up the doors when attaching the hinges. Ha! It’s not going to last for ages, but it’s sturdier than I anticipated. The shelves on the doors are GREAT. It’s a cute little piece and looks great next to the white cabinets in my kitchen! I like that it comes with an anchor strap to prevent tipping on to children. Make sure you have a Phillips screwdriver, a mallet or small hammer, and a drill w a screwdriver bit so you can move through assembly more quickly. It does not come with any tools. Highly recommend this cabinet if you need a pantry with a small footprint!
