Simple or Difficult to Build

Ahead of ordering from Oak Furniture Land.
Attached 'small t.v. Unit'
Using air measure this unit should handle 43" t.v. +tech such as Q+router.
My question, is such as a unit going to be simple or difficult to build on my own,
I don;t have a great deal of strength anymore.8https://imgur.com/gallery/vMHjRuJ

    From their terms and conditions:

    Will I have to assemble the furniture myself?
    At Oak Furniture Land the majority of our products are designed with no home assembly needed,. However, to aid in delivery or to avoid damage, our designers have deemed it best that certain items may need a small amount of home assembly. This includes all dining, cots and beds and some wardrobes, occasional tables and sofa products. Any handles e.g. for drawers and wardrobe doors may be on the inside of the drawers and doors. Items needing assembly will be clearly identified to you prior to purchase. Our designers ensure that any assembly is as straightforward as possible and in no way detracts from the quality or structural integrity of the product.

    What does the website say about self assembly for this particular product?
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Interesting. This is the link for others:
    https://www.oakfurnitureland.co.uk/furniture/rivermead-natural-solid-oak-small-tv-cabinet/194.html


    There's nothing to suggest it requires self-assembly, including the reviews. The wardrobe has a comment about self-assembly required. The bed makes no comments about self-assembly required though it would (as confirmed by the comments).


    OP - it looks as though you won't need to do anything but if you're unsure, contact the store.

    Their stuff is good. I bought a different TV unit a few months ago. They insisted on using their own van rather than couriers to deliver and brought it right into the house.



    As I recall, I had to screw the door handle on.

    Thanks mser's
    Since decided to take a run to store tomorrow and order t.v. Unit.
    This should be nicer for home entertainment tech.
    Hopefully used AirMeasure correctly and should allow enough room for 43" 4k t.v.
    Using existing measurements the unit in-depth is a few centimetres more, though width and height seem fine, maybe slightly higher than existing setup.

    T.v. Cabinet is quality.
    Managed to recycle the immense cardboard packaging today.
    Also gone is the 3 layered black glass previous unit.
    2 short drives to re cycle centre complete.
