Easy to assemble (just me, alone)... I finished in about 2 hours. Quality wood, looks great when assembled, love the ease of opening the drawers and hidden top compartment. I'm a bit disappointed at the height of storage room in the drawers. The pictures show a specific height measurement; however, the wood frame cuts this down .5" and that's the exact amount I need to fit soda cans in the drawer. I'm using it next to my mini fridge and was hoping to store extra drinks %26 snacks in it. I am currently laying the cans horizontally in the drawer for now. The ONLY true con is, in my opinion, the lights aren't bright enough and they aren't Wi-Fi enabled, so I can't control them with my Alexa speakers. Changing these to Wi-Fi enabled lights might be an option at a later time, but I'd have to take apart a lot to do this. I used the remote to turn the brightness all the way up but it's not near as bright as shown in photos. The lights are installed behind a overlapping wood frame (table top). When the top hidden drawer is exposed, half of the lights are exposed and this makes them brighter... but when this drawer is closed, it's hard to see the light. Maybe this is by design, to allow a slight dim glow? Other than this, I love the nightstand.
