Lovely window seat, easy to assemble. Took me about 40 minutes, all I did was make sure the parts were complete, I had the needed tools and then got on with it, even hubby was surprised at how quickly I completed it. There  are parts that have no holes which you need to screw in a bit harder for the screws to penetrate the wood, otherwise fairly easy and straightforward. The storage is not as deep as I thought but is deep enough to store stuff.
