It took me an entire day to put this together...the screws come all in one bag and you have to separate and label them with the corresponding alphabet letter in order to follow the instructions. The instructions were really great, just plan to take your time and follow step by step...all the holes line up perfectly. Once you put the hutch on, there is not much depth left on the top surface, just 13". 
It's perfect for me, just a place to sit and write a note or sort through mail...
Looks really nice!

Pros: shipping was quick and came well packaged
Cons: took 8 hours to put together
