This is an excellently put together piece of solid wood furniture, with the exception of the hidden feet rails that are underneath the piece (attached by staples, one of which broke on mine, though it does not interfere with its function).  It comes fully assembled.  However, being a newly finished piece of solid wood furniture, it is quite smelly even after a week or so in my home and if left closed does not allow the inside to air out.  The smell does decrease over time.
