The shoe cubby was easy to assemble, it took me about one hour. The only reason I give it 3 stars is: 1. The cubbies are only good for kids and female shoes, too small for male shoes. 
2. There is a fifth leg in the middle of the cubby that is supposed to stabilize it and somehow is about 1/2 inch from the floor. Is supposed to be adjusted depending on the floor, but it doesn’t reach mine. The other four legs are just fine.
