This is an awesome toy, but the assembly is tougher than it seems like it will be - and only at the last step. Here’s how I got mine together:
1. Follow the provided instructions up until the last step, making sure that you align the legs properly (the bottom screw that attaches to the bottom tray isn’t centered in the leg - the wider part of the leg needs to be on the outside).
2. If the top tray won’t align, remove the bottom screws from the storage tray in the back. Then, insert the top tray per the instructions and re-insert the bottom screws. Th extra horizontal force from the bottom screws was squeezing my vertical supports so much that the workbench surface couldn’t fit in its spot.
I was CERTAIN that something had been mis-drilled, and I do think some of the cuts are off by a few mm, but by taking these two extra steps I was able to assemble the workbench perfectly. No wobbles, nothing crooked, nothing half-attached.
Other stuff I had to fix during assembly:
- I put the front legs on wrong (narrow part to the outside), which made the workbench look crooked and wobbly and made it impossible to insert the top piece
- I used the short screws to add the green piece (don’t do that, they don’t reach)
The provided directions aren’t the best but hopefully with these tips you will get yours together on the first try! If I had done it right the first time, assembly would have been about 15 min instead of 90.

Be sure to place the legs so that the smallest width (at the lowest screw location) is inboard (see second photo)
It's possible to swap left for right causing the legs to not align properly, then everything else will not align either.
They actually should have marked them with L or R on the legs themselves.
The photo on the product description also shows this.
Was quick and easy to assemble. Couldn't be happier!!!
