I absolutely love this vanity and stool! It was pretty easy to put together by myself, but I will warn those who will be putting it together without help - you will have to get yourself into some contorted positions to hold a couple of pieces together while you screw them together, but there were only a few challenging moments like this; otherwise, it was easy and I put both the bench and table together in under 2 hours. As a reference, I was moving slowly and carefully because I had cervical spine surgery 4 months ago and had to watch my body mechanics!
