Took me over 4 hours to put it together! The instructions were very clear though, so that was helpful. 
I had to open the box and bring the pieces upstairs in batches because it’s fairly heavy. 
Prior to building, there are some flaws on almost every piece in the box. I still put it together thinking maybe it won’t be so noticeable once it’s whole, but since I built it, it’s all I can see. The cracks on the sides, the pressure cracks in the drawers, and the chip in the mirror…I gotta admit, I do love the mirror and its various settings. The chairstool that comes with the set is so small!! I will most likely change it out at some point. I love how it looks overall, but the quality is not impressive.
