This took me about 8 hours to assemble alone. I bent a board hammering in the drawer tracks and some of the screws were really hard to screw in completely. Some of the holes did not line up correctly. Overall a big headache and not sturdy at all until I nailed (with almost common pin size nails) the back of the bureau which is cardboard.  I was very surprised when it actually stabilized the piece. I'm not expecting it to last more than the 2 years my daughter has left in college but the price was right and it actually looks decent. I would not use this to hold anything heavy or if you like to stuff your drawers full.
