The cart is relatively easy to put together. Unfortunately one of the parts they shipped me had the holes drilled backwards so I was trying to figure it out for about a half a day wondering if I was doing it wrong.  But I called, explained my problem and they shipped me the correct part within a couple days.  After that it was easy. Although I would have someone help you with the drawers, kinda tricky.  All-in-all a beautiful cart and great quality so far.
