Ok not going to kid you. I am a 70 year old young woman. I put together by myself. Took me a morning and I have one blister on my hand. But it came out awesome . The most difficult parts for me were the back panels ( lots of screws ) and the fireplace insert. Had a hart time getting the holes to line up for the insert. Shoved a piece of the styrofoam under to hold it up. But I did it. As you may have guessed, I am quite proud of myself. And l love ❤️ the TV stand.  Just what I envisioned. For someone with a little experience probably much easier to assemble. Very satisfied
