It took 2.5 hrs to put together. Directions a bit confusing.  There was a glue I didn't even notice until I screwed it all  togeter.  Final product looks nice but the materials are a tad cheap. It's a wood laminate, not solid hardwood. Looks like it may chip or scratch easily.  No instructions on how to care for it. Also watch out for shipping. FedEx ground has issues.
