This cabinet was not very hard to put together but it took several hours. My husband and I are older so it was pretty heavy to maneuver. I recommend you have a table to put it on while you’re assembling it. There are about 28 pieces and a ton of hardware. It also took two of us to put the doors on because they are heavy and it’s hard to hold the door while screwing in the hinge. Read the last page of the instructions!  It gives you ways to adjust the doors. Also, there are no written instructions, just pictures. But it wasn’t too hard to follow them. All in all, it wasn’t that bad, and the cabinet seems very well constructed and sturdy. In hindsight, I’d pay the extra to have someone else do it. But if you aren’t 70years old, it isn’t too bad.
