I am a full time student and just finished putting this together in my studio apartment, and the assembly took about four hours. Although a power driver is not required for assembly, there are a LOT of screws needed to assemble this thing so a power tool might have cut some time off. It was tough putting it together in a small space but doable, and the cushion stickers allow you to slide it around on a wood floor without scratching it all up once the body is assembled. The drawers fit in really tight and were HARD to get in initially and thats really my only complaint about the thing now that it is assembled. There are NO extra screws and widgets so be careful not to lose anything during assembly. When I first opened the box the first piece of wood I pulled out had broken during shipping and I was really upset until I realized it was just extra bracing and not actually part of the assembly. I would recommend this for students on a budget with limited drawer space. Would consider buying more furniture from this company again, but only because I move a lot and wouldnt feel too bad about cheaper furniture getting scratched up. Overall you got what you paid for.
Not Ikea, but works for the price.
