Let me start by saying that this is a great piece of furniture.  Very sturdy and tall.  I have the white one.  However, this was by far, the largest piece of furniture that my mother and I have ever tried to put together and I wasn't going to complete the review until it was complete.  It turns out, we are too short (5' and 5'3" together).  Until my sister came who is closer to 6', we couldn't get more than half of it together.

The directions were great, especially if you read and complete step 1 but it still gets out of control if you don't have enough people to complete it.  It also takes 3 people to lift it off the floor because it is quite heavy.
