I was a little afraid after reading some of the reviews, but I didn't have a hard time putting these togerher. Took me about 40 minutes each. All the parts were there, and the directions were pretty visually explanatory. I just sat on the floor in front of the TV and went to work. They are as described, and in my opinion look more expensive than they are. The drawers glide easily, and they are perfect for what I needed.
