I love this server. I ordered the Alabaster White. It did take me and the hubby about 4hrs to assembly it. We had all the parts and everything was perfect, no wood chips or anything. It is heavy so we took are time and layed out each piece. Once it was all done we had the one door that would not go back enough to initiate the spring loaded mechanism, so I just put in a rubber cushion and whalla  it worked.
