I spent quite a bit of time putting this together by myself; one of the side boards chipped quite easily while trying to assemble but thankfully I was able to secure it with the other connections. It won’t close flat - there’s a gap when I put it down. Someone above suggested using wood glue, I second that. To be honest putting the top on was without a doubt a pain; I wish they had better directions for this and perhaps a different order of doing things especially when it came to assembling the springs and the top. It’s pretty when assembled and if I can figure out how to put the top down flat (coffe table style) I’ll keep it!
Assembly instructions lacking
