You Might Want to Start by Watching the Assembly Video
The end product is really nice. Putting it together was not. Lets start at the delivery. It is ONE big package that weighs 135 pounds or so. It doesnt come apartlike maybe two boxes banded together. Luckily I have a big, strong neighbor and a hand truck. My assistant for assembly was a professional contractor. He could have built this from a stack of wood. All of the wood parts were not labelled. Some parts were labelled on the raw edge with a marker. The screws and other hardware were not labelled in their little packages. Not a problem for us, but could well be an issue for others. It took us a good couple of hours. All the holes were drilled in the right place. Nice hingesand thankfully, professional contractors know how to adjust them. No, we did not watch the video. With a less/experienced assistant, it would probably be a good idea. Yes, I would buy another one to put beside it if I needed it. And it would no doubt go together more quickly.
