I was initially scared about what I had purchased after reading more reviews indicating the assembly was difficult. It wasnt. In fact, its very straight/forward! It did take me about 1.5 / 2 hours to put it together but thats simply because there are many parts and steps. The steps are really well thought out though as you prep each piece before putting everything together. If you can follow Lego or IKEA instructions, youll be good to go. If you are one of those people though who dont read directions and just start putting things together, youre in for it.
I knocked off one star because I did have an issue with the track system going in opposite because the illustration didnt provide enough detail on which end should go in which direction, but it was luckily easy enough to take off and turn around when it was time to put the drawer in.
The wood is not solid wood, but heavy/duty MDF (I believe). Everything is nice and tight once put together. It looks great and Im glad I went with it!
Sturdy, easy to assemble, and looks great
