You must set aside hours to put this piece together and have a really large space. There are many, many parts and the instruction manual is extensive BUT not as helpful as one would’ve hoped. The piece isn’t worth the time or money spent. Save yourself the frustration and look for something that comes assembled…at least partially. I would have returned it but that would have meant more time to take it apart and pay for the shipping back. The two stars; 1) the piece works for the space that it was intended for, 2) for the customer service I’d received from Wayfair after I’d expressed my frustration.
