Tedious, thats for sure. However, still do-able! It took me, alone, about 4-5 hours total to put together. The parts are mostly labeled, some I dont think had stickers labeling them, however its fairly easy to guess which part is which once you have most of them separated. The majority of the build is easy... until you get to the drawers. The drawers were seemingly pretty complicated for me so I only got one in and I think that was out of sheer luck. So, I opted to not mess around with the second one and leave it as an open space. Otherwise, everything else went together fairly well. Still, it was time consuming. But it looks great if you put the effort and time into putting it together! Also, this thing is HEAVY! So, if youre like me who tries to do everything by myself- maybe get a little help lifting it so you dont hurt yourself.. otherwise this is a great product worth the money! Its also good to note that this took quite a while to get to me. I think that may be because of the general Christmas rush, weather, etc. Who knows, but it came in good condition anyways!
63 table, semi easy to ensemble however, I would say please see video of step 5 prior to mounting. The biggest downside was that my order was shipped over 10 days after purchase date. Each piece had its own sticker with the corresponding letter/number for each step which made it easier to put together. We lasted longer on step 5 because the instructions do not say you can release the latches in order to properly mount. I wouldnt recommend adding wholes or doing this on your own without following the instructions. We did not use the lights it came with, we purchased our lights separate.
Tips:
STEP 5, release the lever and the first slide detaches from the main slide
Rating this product is difficult for me. The final product looks nice enough and works perfectly in the space we purchased it for, my daughter loves it, but the overall quality of the pre-fab panels are quite poor and the instructions, well, they are easily the worst Ive ever seen and miss out some key information that could really help.
To give some context, Ive assembled dozens of this type of furniture and it took my about 2 hours to put this together, which isnt too bad really, but a lot of that time was wasted due to poor instructions. For example, the bags of parts are labeled with letters, and the instructions on one of the first steps specified that I needed 16 pcs of the screws from the bag labeled I, except there was no bag I. After spending some time looking I eventually realized that bag B was also labeled as having the same size screws and sure enough, it was enough to cover both the B and I use cases. This only took a couple of minutes to figure out, but there were just so many things like this.
Another issue was with the assembly of the drawer rails. Its so much easier to put the rails on BEFORE you assemble the base together, but the instructions would have you do this after, which means your sticking your arm and trying to do things without really being able to see. Certainly doable, but I can see how it would be frustrating for some people. I was lucky to notice this and put the rails on before I assembled, but little things like that are just annoying.
In some cases panels can be assembled in two different directions but the drawings in the instructions only show the holes that this step uses, so you can put it together and then have to redo it. I also had problems with some holes stripping out way to easy. I fixed this with a little glue to make sure the screws would stay in place, but it just speaks to the poor quality of the materials. Ive never experienced this problem with all the other pre-fab furniture Ive assembled over the years.
Summary: I didnt find it overly difficult to assemble, but it was probably 50% harder than it could have been with better instructions, slightly higher quality materials, and clearly/properly labeled parts per-step, and Ive assembled quite a number of similar products that were better at all of these.
That being said, we shopped quite a bit for a stand, and the others of similar size and style were quite a bit more expensive, and, in the end, the final, assembled product still looks quite nice and seems solid enough and Im sure it will work well for its intended purpose for many years to come, so I decided on 4 stars overall.
Honestly very happy with this purchase only a few complaints wish it was about 4 inches higher if you have little kids dont buy it they will knock your tv over trust me or animals but other than that very very sturdy good quietly and for me to write a review Im happy with the purchase and I had to have a friend help me to put it together shout out to Brandon Heath lol

drawers were difficult to assemble
Great looking unit, sturdy and well made, good value.
Easy to assemble
Had alot of parts, but instructions were fairly easy to understand.
Step 5: RELEASE THE LATCHES AND SEE PICTURES/VIDEO posted on prior to mounting

Some quality issues and difficult assembly, but final product looks nice and seems quite functional
