This hall tree is very easy to assemble and it looks great. My young son and I put it together without any issue. Everything fit perfectly. All you need is a couple of  screw drivers. We like the design of this hall tree. It is modern and sleek. The chevron design gives it a pop without being too much. The cubbies on the bottom is perfect for storing shoes or a basket can be placed in there as well. The seat can hold up to 250 lbs. the back wall is very sturdy. It has a very good support so you don’t have to worry able it toppling over. It comes with a tip restraint hardware too if you want to use that. We opted out. Overall, we’re giving this 5 star for the looks, quality, and ease of assembly. Highly recommend it.
