It took my dad and I about 90 minutes to put it together, only because we put a couple pieces in backwards and had to back track (whoops!). In any case, it does the job. I recommend you consider the measurements, not because it isn’t accurate, but because it’s low to the ground. I didn’t give it 5 stars only because it’s particle board. I knew this going in but it makes screwing the boys in a little nerve wrecking. In any case, it looks great in my house. )
