Except for IKEA executives, they would spend 4 years assembling the cabinet.

    I’ve owned plenty of Ikea in my life and it kinda just depends. Most of it’s well-designed but poorly machined so the more complex it is, the more likely you are to get two dowel holes that only barely line up or a screw hole that wasn’t drilled. Most times, you’ll encounter no issues at all. And other times, you’ll be like me and have to deal with the Norberg, a bastard of a shelf that took me, an experienced woodworker with an entire shop of tools at my disposal, two days and three different screw types to hang on the wall.

      Oof! That’s rough. With a full shop you Could build it from scratch in half the time. Can’t beat the price, though…
