Arrived earlier than expected which was perfect, well packaged and not damaged inside despite a couple tears on the cardboard outside (understandable due to its weight). Directions were relatively easy to follow, took two people less than 4 hours to put together.. thanks to previous reviews that advised to assemble near or at the place it was intended to be placed.. very heavy and difficult to carry esp when doors are attached. The back is flimsy, was afraid it might snap when we were trying to ease it in, but held together in the end. Looks very good after assembled, feel it is worth the price. Looking forward to using it!
