Just got it last night, put together right away! I was able to put it together myself, it may have been a little bit easier with two people but this way avoided any bickering. It took probably 3 hours, but I was going slow and steady. It's very study (the box was 90 lbs), arrived well packaged, and the electric unit on the side is a great touch. Looking forward to buying the full collection of this design as time goes on.
