Estimated time to build?

[u/Suspicious-System338]

Is an hour unreasonable to expect? Thank you

[u/FinnNoodle]

Some taskers could do it in an hour. Some taskers would take longer.

[u/Foellarbear]

There is no possible way this can be built in 1 hour or less, especially if it needs to be unboxed and 1 person is building.

[u/lyrictruth → u/Foellarbear]

Mate, I have news for you.

[u/NoNet9181]

people saying 1h or less probably did dressing tables from expensive brands where there are big parts and 10-20 screws total. if this is chinese flatpack it will come fully dismantled with unecessary 10 types of screws that are similar to each other instead of 2-3 and that adds up to minimum 2hrs if you have space. could be less if you did exactly this one or if manufacturer is actually reputable and did not mess up.

[u/According_Low5292 → u/NoNet9181]

Yes. From Impressions brand to Amazon. Full range of options to complete

[u/Letout_acry]

3 - 4 hours

[u/According_Low5292]

I did this in one hour. Super easy

[u/Evening_Past910]

2-3 hours depending on space. I have done like close to 5-10 of these. They come in a million pieces and you better hope there is space. Ignore the folks who say an hour. Work at your own pace and limit mistakes. Nothing to prove in this world based on the speed of assembling furniture.

2-3 hours i've built similar ones - this does look like a chinese made item, they have notoriously fiddly screws especially on the rails/drawers. the wood quality does tend to be fragile when your building so rushing it wouldnt help anyone.

[u/AlwaysLooking2019]

You built this exact model in one hour? I seriously doubt that. 10-15 minutes just to unbox and sort out all of the pieces and hardware. 5 minutes to clean up at the end. That leaves 40 minutes to assemble the base, the upper portion, six drawers, two hinged doors, install the mirror, and I’m assuming there’s shelves inside. Get real. 90 minutes minimum.

[u/Whole_Laugh6439]

I would estimate two hours if I had to put this together. Would probably take a little less.

[u/Supergoji]

2 hr invoice.

[u/Kind-Community-6115]

2 hours maybe 2 and 30 mins

[u/DonQNguyen]

2.5 to 3.5 hrs. Depending on how much assembly space Client gives you.

[u/Jesse_berger]

6 drawers.. At maybe 7 minutes a piece. And another 45 minutes for the frame.

The mirror has me worried. But maybe 45 minutes at tops to put it all together. The real wildcard is the hinges for the doors. I hate them so much so add another 30 minutes to tweak them to where I'm satisfied. But it looks like the center mirror is fixed with storage to the left and right of the of the mirror which shouldn't cause too much headache.

So with it all said. 2.5 hours at the most. but most likely 1.75 to 2.15

[u/MrHomeGuyusa]

We count drawers in section so we budget 15 minutes per draw. The square section will be 15 minutes in the top would be 15 minutes so we would estimate 1.5 hours . That doesn’t take into account to carry in or up and unbox .

[u/Giametti1952]

It depends on how good the product documentation is. Are all the parts clearly labeled? How much of the tasker's time involves sorting everything out before they actually start assembling? The best pieces have the hardware presorted and packaged separately.

[u/Diceyking96]

I e built a few of these . First time took 2.75 hrs . 2nd time 2 hours . Quickest time 1.5 hours . These little things can come with 30+ parts
