I got this for a great deal, and it looks just like the picture. They dont warn you, but it took over 4 hours to put together, an additional person is a must, and a few extras help, like a power drill and a screwdriver they help move things along. No words, only picture instructions, a million screws, and every piece is separate. I still give it 5 stars because it really is a beautiful kitchen, my niece loves it, totally worth every minute of assembly time you wont regret it.
