We received our Armoire well. Assembling IS tricky. Take your time to do it as once placed incorrect and glued, it will rip pressed wood off when you try to remove and reassemble. Also, it's obvious to assemble it in the room where you want to place it. My husband and I started assembling it in our living room because it had more space. We had about 25% completed and thought to move it to the bedroom and maneuvering slightly ripped the top shelf. So must be careful with it. We didn't want to assemble fully and move it as it would have gotten heavy. Rest is good.
