Not easy to assemble

Not easy to assemble! This is a beautiful cart/stand and is exactly what I wanted. But - there are no instructions - only pictures. I can usually assemble things (alone) without looking at the pictures, but there are so many identical parts that we kept looking at the photos trying to understand the difference between the parts. Some things were very obvious. Other things are more confusing than you might think. I gave 4 stars because it's beautiful and it's exactly what I wanted. I hope that the problem with my device was just an accident and that most devices work after reassembly. But the assembly took two people, more than two hours. Also, the roller slides for the drawer were not fitted straight and the screws (already installed prior to shipment) were half tight so the drawer would not fit in the slide. We had to grind the heads on the screws and straighten the crooked side and the drawer still doesn't open easily. I can't just lean over and open a drawer to get a file. You need both hands to open the drawer. Honestly I'm not sure if I can use the box. For the price I expected it to be perfect. I'm honestly disappointed because it's exactly what I wanted - as long as it works. It fits my two printers and saves me the filing cabinet I used, giving you so many features in a small space. I want it to work the way it's supposed to. I don't even think about going back. After all this work I will not disassemble it to ship and return. I think it's worth the chance - and I hope you have better luck. It's a beautiful, sturdy piece of furniture that has my laser printer on top and an HP flatbed printer on the bottom shelf. The drawer is a practical workplace.

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • Not bad
