Absolutely beautiful piece. Im not a large lady (54, 125lbs) but I set this up by myself. It took me 5 hours but I still did it! I would DEFINITELY advise setting it up with another person though. The weight of this piece is back breaking. Beautiful grey tone to it and its extremely sturdy. My husband almost fainted when I told him how much I spent on it but he ended up loving it when he first saw it!
