I ordered this along with the coffee table.  I assembled it myself and it took less than an hour.  However, it was easier because I had assembled the coffee table first with assistance and did so in under 2 hours.  Quality is impressive.  Heavy enough to feel like a quality piece, but light enough to move around the room.  The lid is sturdy when opened and there is no fear of having it fall on my children's heads.  I'm pleased with this purchase.
