The unit took about 3hours to put together, instructions aren't the best, pieces are numbered, however a few weren't so we had to do a bit guess work, there's a small blemish on the shelf above the draw but you can't really notice it. The only down side is the lights that came with it blew up the manufacturer is aware of this and is sending out new lights to all customers this could of easily been an A and E job instead of a DIY job but the unit is worth it's money once done minus the lights.
