Took almost 3 hours one person. But when it’s all together looks great!! Very sturdy!! Aligned up pretty good. The leg pieces might be tricky if you don’t have strength. You have to bend them. Also comes with gloves to put together great idea because it’s metal can scratch putting it together. I also suggest an electric drill would have only taken a hour if I thought about charging ours. There is a great video from a buyer. Explains it really well. Overall great and looks great! We are getting one for my mother in laws small NYC apartment. We got the ‘61 great height. Just enough.
