Im a small woman, age 71, and managed to put this together. Most of it I could do by myself, but I needed someone to hold the doors while I attached the initial screws. The directions were clear, but the pictures helped immensely. What I really liked was the extra packet of parts and tools. I also liked the round head hex wrench. The main issue, and I found it a large one, was the strong odor (not especially pleasant) coming from the furniture / I assume the paint. I coughed for 12 days straight. At this point, either the odor is getting better or I am getting used to it, but Im not coughing as much. Weve been able to keep the windows in the house open, but the winds are picking up, so well need to close up to keep the desert dust out. If you have any breathing issues, I suggest another choice. The other more slight issue, is the paint chips easily, so I had difficulty attaching the hinges without chipping the paint. In general though, I like the looks of the product and the way it functions. Good but not what I expected
Strong odor for days
