I absolutely LOVE my new Bar set!  I put it together over the weekend by myself.  It took about 10 hours to get it all done cause it had a lot of nuts, bolts, nails, and pieces.  the instructions were really easy to follow but it's a lot of work. Having two people would be ideal and shorter.  I don't put furniture together often, so this was a challenge but the finished product was EXACTLY what you see in the picture.  Actually I was happy that it was taller than what I thought and thicker.  I am very very happy with my purchase as I am with all WAYFAIR products that I have purchased.  My entire home is slowly becoming a WAYFAIR showroom!  lol  I would definitely recommend this piece. :)
