This dresser is a little daunting to put together but its possible. I did it by myself. It took about 2-3 hours, but I took my time. The top drawer doesnt close easily like the other ones but Im sure its something that I did incorrectly during assembly. The quality is very good. Its sturdy and it looks great. The knobs are a heavy plastic but they look nice (you can always buy metals ones from a home improvement store). I used the ones the dresser came with and spray painted them gold to match my decor. Great buy for me!
