Customer feedback reports positive impressions of quality, while assembly experiences are mixed: one customer found it easy to put together and another found the instructions confusing. For buyers assembling the unit themselves, that difference matters. The listing says assembly is required and instructions are included, but feedback does not establish how every build will go.
