After reading all the reviews, I thought this was going to be a bear to assemble. My 13yearold started the job on his own. I told him to read the instructions very carefully because all the reviews said it took hours to assemble and the directions had to be followed exactly. Well, he was able to assemble it without a hitch in about an hour with minimal help from his16yearold brother. It seems very sturdy. So far, we are very happy. We will see how it holds up!
Dont be afraid of assembly!
