is it hard to assemble?

It's not necessarily hard to ensemble if you follow the instructions step by step but it is very time consuming bc there are a lot of parts.

Not hard, but VERY time consuming. It took me about four hours working at a comfortable, steady pace and really studying the assembly diagrams. I have to give KidCraft credit for the instructions. One step at a time, very simple but obvious diagrams, usually only one or two different screw/other types involved for each step (so each diagram was not overly complicated), but you will repeat that step two or four times per the 43 diagrams - so you can see how it adds up in time. And despite paying very careful attention, I still somehow managed to miss attaching two less relevant pieces which, with just a little loosening up on targeted screws, I was able to push them into place.

As the others have indicated, it's not hard to assemble, it's just that the set is in many pieces (58 or so) and the assembly is in 43 steps, so you're going to need at least 3-4 hours set aside. But each item is well numbered and easy to identify. The screws, nuts and bolts come in a package that is separated into letter codes so you can open up the parts you'll need to use when you are ready. The instructions are visual with very little wording (if any). It's best to have a very large work area to layout all the parts, this will make it easier to assemble. I assembled mine early Christmas morning at 12:30 AM and I was done at about 3:30-4:00 AM. :-) As the others have indicated, it's not hard to assemble, it's just that the set is in many pieces (58 or so) and the assembly is in 43 steps, so you're going to need at least 3-4 hours set aside.

Yes there is some assembly required. It is not that difficult to put together.

No it needs to be assembled. It wasn't hard for my husband, but he is mechanical-minded.

There is some minor assembly but nothing too difficult. If you're comfortable reading and following directions you will be fine. If not ask a friend to help.
1728372
Not at all. It's quite easy actually, it only took me 15 minutes to assemble it.

Definitely have to assemble it. You'll need 2 people to do the assembly. Not all that difficult but the 2nd person is necessary to hold pieces in place while you're assembling the chair.

Yes it's easy to assemble, just follow the step by step directions. There are probably 10 pieces in total.

No. It's not difficult to assemble though. Hardest part was moving the heavy box.
1602572
Yes but can't tell you how difficult it was. Gave it to our handyman to put together. however I don't think it was very difficult.

No. The assembly instructions are pretty clear though, and I am not the most mechanically apt guy. You'll be OKAY, or someone you know who has used any basic hand tools will do fine as well.By the way, the product is good and sturdy, well made, and a great price.

yes, my husband assembled it and was not very hard. I love the shelve because it looks very modern

No, but it is not that hard to put together. It does have some pretty good directions to follow, but you can pretty much figure it out without using it to be honest.

It's not hard to put together at all. Putting the drawers in were a little awkward and required a little force but still easy to assemble. Only thing to watch out for, Once you have it full, you can't pick it up without supporting the whole structure down to the last drawer. I love the organization it provides and it's a cheap, easy to assemble solution to organization. Hope this helps!

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.

No, I'm afraid not. It took me approximately 4 hours to assemble (admittedly after a tiring day), but should take substantially less time if you have an assistant. However, it works and looks terrific upon completion.

No. You will have to put it together. It is not too hard. I am not a mechanical genius and I was able to do it.

I had no problem assembling it, anytime you have metal that has bends in it you sometimes have to put a little pressure on them to get the pieces to slip in together. My total time was about 15 minutes to assemble
