Was very pleased with this purchase.  I just put it together this afternoon.  It took me about 2 hours from start to finish (which includes setting all the pieces out all the way to cutting up the box for the recycling bin--and the fact that my 5 year old daughter was "helping").  The directions are VERY clear and I encountered no problems while putting it together.  After completion, it feels very sturdy and the drawer slides in and out seamlessly.  Would definitely recommend this item.
