If you don't want the feeling of sleeping in a cockpit I recommend

I think they look great in my bedroom/office The white casters look a bit 'cheap' when assembled but they work great for being moved around the room I bought two of these and included them myself assembled with a little help from my 4 and 8 year olds on the 2nd, having their help and having to get us lunch and everything, it took me a couple of hours to complete one, if I wasn't multitasking I could probably do both can be done in an hour. I'm a single parent and I put together a lot of shelving, cribs, furniture and all by myself and usually with the help of at least one child so I was already familiar with the equipment and how to use it. I h Didn't read all the prep pages in the manual before I started but watched it after I was done and I think it did a good job of explaining hardware, like using cameras. I have a small hand, am generally petite, 1.50m tall, and the little lady's glove is too big for me, so the included screwdriver, which is also short, was difficult to use because I needed more leverage to turn. I just got a longer screwdriver from my tool box and it worked great getting all the screws in as evenly as possible. The holes are all well aligned, not pre-drilled, but I think that's on purpose considering it's not real wood and just a little extra elbow grease so the screw is more secure. I think the instructions are in good condition and I didn't have to take apart or correct anything. Which is handy for me before I start assembly to unpack everything so I can see how everything is laid out, I don't remove the screws from the bag but put them in the smaller boxes I usually use to hold bits and pieces Keeping organized around the house also prevents them from getting lost under anything while building. My kids check inventory with me, which is strategic because they get bored with "help" for a while until they see me twisting larger pieces, and their help isn't too bad. I read a few steps before the current step just to see if what I'm doing makes sense and I look at the pictures very carefully trying to make sure the pieces fit together before I start screwing anything . I rotated the main structure differently than the instructions just to make it easier for me to use a screwdriver with more confidence. Everything went well and I appreciate that they pre-included additional elements that I don't need but may have in the future. I hope I don't need them, but it's nice that the company thought of that. I am happy with my purchase and recommend it to everyone. Especially since Covid and I have had to turn my personal space into a workspace, but I don't want it to feel like I'm sleeping in a cockpit.
