Love this, and very sturdy. I put it together alone, so it is possible but it took me a long time (~3.5 hrs each) and it was a struggle. Some of the peg holes weren't perfect but a little bit of slight chiseling and it is good to go. Also you can put the drawers on whichever side you want which is exactly what I was looking for. Only drawback is if you put it together according to the directions the drawers are not removable. But besides the struggle putting these together I love the look and how sturdy they are.
