It took me a good while to put together bc none of the pieces were marked/numbered. Also it was clear someone else had this issue, threw in the towel and returned it— Bc mine was used. A few scuff marks and ink marks. But once done and put together— it’s nice. Be aware only the bottom holds hanging files - the top is a shallow drawer for accessories or paper storage laying flat. Also use wood glue to hold the pieces together and get a rubber mallet for the pegs. You’ll need them.
