Many reviews warn that this is hard to build. I found that while it took 2 of us 4+hours total to build the building process was not that difficult. If you have ever built a medium/large item from (insert big name Swedish store) it is very similar. I would recommend having a measuring tape and marker to label the hardware parts as they are separated but not labeled.  We were missing some screws and had extra of others which could be because A) we used the wrong size somewhere else in the building process or B) were sent the wrong screws, although due to the previously mentioned lack of labeling i believe that A was the reason. Overall very good quality and not to difficult to build, just takes time and 2+ people!
