I assembled this in 30 minutes (without help from husband) and is was fun. I looks really nice. The pieces were packaged really well and I didn't notice and scuffs or marks. The instruction were very basic, but did the trick. A small tool is provided, but I found a screw driver easier to use. The hamper is sturdy and looks really nice.  There is also a nice fabric liner included. There is only one hinge keeping the top open, but it seems to hold well. I am pleased with the purchase. Most hampers look like such junk - this one really looks nice.

Pros: Good value, easy to assemble, well made, well packaged, shipping very fast
Cons: The pieces have a very strong paint smell at first, so if you are sensitive you might what to assemble it outside..
