Upon receiving the dresser ( I waited close to a month for it) my husband and I set to assembling it from flat box construction. It took close to 5 hours, and there were more than a few points where we wanted to give up! It also came with a pressure break in one of the top corners of the flat top piece, and it doesn't line up right with the aligning piece because of that. It is a cute dresser, but pretty crummy quality overall and a long wait time to receive after ordering.
