First off, no issues with delivery, packaging or broken or missing pieces . Read booklet first and then went to work. Used a folding table to assemble first 6 steps then transfered to the floor. I used a very low speed screw gun and hand tightened rest of the way, do not over tighten anything except by hand. It has lots of pieces...lots. So be patient. Took about little over 3 hours with a few breaks in between. I put in place where we wanted it and then adjusted the doors after leveling it. I didn't have any issues with the doors being perfect this way. Take your time assembling it and it will come perfect. Some pointers: the dowels are not tight fitting and i didn't use glue, they held up fine. I did add extra blocks to the bottom for added support. I had no issues and am surprisingly satisfied. Its not a NC furniture company item so it is thin but sturdy. Try it or return it. Photo shows blue color, similiar to a Connecticut blue, but we haven't decided on the pulls yet. Just hoped drawers opened fully out, one draw back i would add.
