Received the item on the date specified, all instructions and hardware were included. Assembly is easy as long as you follow the detailed instructions. I am very happy with this chest of drawers it works nicely for a single person or a child. I have moved to a smaller condo and needed to downsize my master bedroom furniture, this collection fits nicely and allows me plenty of drawer space; I also purchased the 4 drawer chest with a top for the TV and DVD player; along with the night stand. The deals were better and the furniture is just as nice as your big furniture stores. Wayfair is my favorite new shopping haunt.
