The product came with a booklet with step by step instructions. Unfortunately they were somewhat difficult to follow. My husband was able to figure it out but it did take much longer than the estimated installation time of 30-45 minutes. Reserve more like 3 hours. We also ran into a hiccup because our cabinet is almost 13 inches wide, and apparently this only fits 12 inch cabinets. We were able to add some washers to make it work. Now that it is installed, we love it!! The garbage can itself isn’t very big but that was expected. The container in back is awesome for storing the extra garbage bags.
