Was the desk easy to assemble? How long does it take to put it together? Please advise.

My husband assembled the desk and did not find it difficult but he is very handy. I believe it was assembled in a little over an hour. Husband read directions first.

Hello, If you can use a screw driver and follow directions, it is not bad at all. Should take between 2 and four hours; depending on your experience constructing prefab furniture. Even if its your first time, It is pretty easy. Just take your time have all the parts laid out, have fun. By the way I am typing on the desk now, it has held up well, I am still happy with it.

My son put it together for me. It took him about two hours and it wasn't too difficult. Very attractive piece.

Yes, if you can follow directions, it is easy to assemble. It took me 3 to 4 hours. I had to call the help desk with a question, and they were very easy to work with and gave me the answer quickly.

This desk comes flatpacked. Expect to spend about 1.5 hours putting it together. That's approximately how long it took me with a 2 year old literally hanging on my back, and 'helping' daddy put it together. The desk is very sturdy once assembled and has had many compliments.

It took maybe 20-30 minutes for me to assemble it but I will add that I'm not mechanically inclined so putting things together isn't what 'this girl does'! With regard to it's portability, chances are you wouldn't have much of a problem taking it apart due to it's ease of assembly.

Yes, there's a good bit of assembly. FWIW - I love the desk and am very, very happy with it.

I had a guy put it together and it took him about 45 minutes by the time you unpack and layout everything. I would not classify it as easy to assemble, but I'm not mechanical.

In my opinion i wouldnt call it exactly "easy to assemble". Every little piece comes completely disassembled. But, mine did come with assembly instructions.If you've assembled furniture before you can prob figure it out with a little time and patience. If you dont have much experience assembling this sort of stuff id say seek someone who has and can help you put it together:)

I strongly suggest that you follow the instructions. The assembly is very straight forward and requires about a half hour. There are no really small parts and the desk fits together very well.

My husband took about 4 hours to assemble it, including dinner and a coffee break. I'd say he's reasonably skilled, but he's very methodical. He likes to lay out all the pieces and read the directions repeatedly. If you work quickly, 2 hours seems about right.

It takes about 15-20 minutes to assemble, very easy. Instructions not easy to read, but it's not hard to figure out what goes where.

It is not assembled but it was quite simple to put together. I would say it took me approximately a half an hour, I did it alone and I was really relaxed about the time... could have done it faster.

It took about an hour to assemble. Follow the directions and have a Phillips screwdriver. Good sturdy computer desk. Looks good too.

No. You have to assemble it. Not too bad if you've done small furniture before. Took a few hours for both the desk and the hutch.

No. It took me about 2 hours to assemble but I took it slow. It was easy, easier than most of the IKEA furniture I had experience with.

It does not come assembled but it was very simple to put together. It took me maybe 15 minutes and I was very ill at the time so my thoughts were other places! Very worth the effort.

It does not come assembled but, it is very easy to put together. I did it by myself and it took me about 45 mins. I would imagine if I had an extra set of hands it would have been a l little easier. Good luck!

It's very easy to assemble. It need 5 minutes or less from beginning to ending.

my son put it together in about 10 to 15 minutes. Of course he is really good at stuff like this but it didn't look difficult. If my ankle wasn't broken I could have done it, although probably a lot slower. Good Luck. It's well worth the investment.
