The assembly required for this was RIDICULOUS. In fact, it was so ridiculous that I probably will never purchase another piece of furniture like this EVER AGAIN from Birch Lane. It was WAY WORSE than any purchase made from Target or Ikea. It took a good 5 hours to put together-- NOT WORTH IT AT ALL! Some of the parts were not correct, as well, and I had to drill my own holes in one of the pieces of the drawer. That being said, when assembled, it looks just like the picture. UGH. NOT WORTH IT.
