A friend put it together in about 2 Hours.  He had no problems at all. I love this piece. I could not be happier. First furniture purchase online, I am impressed. Though I only have half my order, (later delivery date). I received tv/fireplace in just days. Looks very modern and made very well.  Exactly as picture shown. First time ordering from Wayfair. As I said before, couldn't be more pleased with this purchase.
