This took a long, long time to assemble. Like, 4 hours. And when it was all done, I removed the safety sticker from the top. After reading that other purchasers had issues with it peeling the paint off, I was meticulous and slow and the finish STILL peeled off in a highly visible place. It's very disappointing since it's impossible to replace the top piece without rebuilding the entire thing. Wayfair offered me a discount toward a new purchase.
