Went together fairly easily. All the parts were in the box and well protected. I had a problem with getting the wood screws into the center brace as I do not have a power drill (wasn't aware I needed one). I would recommend leaning your knee on the wood slat as you screw it in to keep it flush with the side panel as you screw in the wood screw. This was learned through trial and error. I am happy with the overall look and how it came together. Took about 20 minutes to put together on my own. The box was 33 lbs and I could not have got it into my apartment on my own.
