Great buffet that I am using as a part of my new coffee bar. The assembly instructions were fairly straightforward, and the materials were packed neatly. In the instructions it clearly states that it requires 2 people to assemble it, and that is absolutely true! I had to do it myself and managed, mainly because I am rather experienced at putting together furniture...but I wouldn't recommend going it alone if you can get some help. Aside from that it's a great piece and looks exactly like the image. It's very sturdy and larger than I thought. I'm very happy with my purchase!
