It took over 5 hours to assemble - I am not all thumbs - there are over 250 parts - instructions are good but some pieces are not marked and can be confused with others.  If I had it do over I would buy from a furniture store have it delivered and set up.  Also very heavy so you will need to open the box and move in pieces. Assembly is tedious and time consuming.  After assembly drawers were misaligned - I spent another hour getting that fixed.  Too many hours required to get to what the pictures shows.
