This was very easy to put together. Instructions state that you need 2 people, but I had no issues doing it by myself. I did use a rubber mallet to gently tap the sides to get the holes to line up, but no different than other knock-down furniture. I have it in my garage to hold my garden clothes & I use the bench to put on my garden shoes.

Love this Bench. I bought 3

I am very impressed with this storage bench. It was easy to assemble with minimal effort All the tools were provided, along with extra hardware. The bench is very cute and sturdy. It provides great storage space and looks great in my room.

Bought two of these. The first one went together very easily. The second one had some serious issues. The back panel had holes that wouldn’t line up with the sides, and even if they had, the bolts wouldn’t screw into the holes.

Misalignment bench top! Just like 2 other people, trying to figure out how to fix or to just return. This bench is really nice though but it sucks that it is defective

TOP DIDNT FIT AS MANY TIMES U TRY TO PUT IT TOGETHER IN DIFFERENT WAYS IT JUST DONT SIT PROPERLY NOR WILL THE SCREWS MATCH/ OR ADD UP TO CLOSE COMPLETELY
