My Dad was a quiet man who rarely pulled pranks. When a car had some issue with the engine, instead of taking it to the shop he figured he could fix it with the help of Chiltons. Six months later he finally had it repaired. He had kept all the broken and worn out parts he'd replaced in a cardboard box. When he was showing Mom the car was up and running right again, he put the box in the backseat. "What's that?" "Oh, that's the stuff I couldn't figure out where it went so I figured I'd just keep it in the car for you so if it breaks again, you can just show the mechanic the box and maybe he can figure out what is wrong." Mom's face was priceless. 😂😂

As a guy who build furniture like this for a living I can say this is accurate building in the store, but add a couple more steps in between. Turn a screw help a customer, turn a screw help a customer. After 8 hrs it's finally built if it was a complex build. Display and secure it, and a few days later the district manager tells you to move it to the other side of dept and next week tells you to move it back. If your unlucky enough someone would sell said display and you have to do it all over again. Believe me it does not get easier because you had it built once before and you have to do it again.

They should make simpler furniture kits that require a drill to assemble. Symmetric pieces, 1 or 2 kinds of hardware only. Just put it together and drive the screws in simple.

Okay I notice a problem. Not following instructions and use a microscope how to orient the nanometre-scale drawn hole orientations on the objectively similar pieces. Only after the tenth time your wife points out that there are actually different hole patterns you start to see it (sometimes). Its like the blue or gold dress.

Got my crib at Walmart for like $80 15 years ago. Was super simple to put together. Really didn't need instructions. Now they have some really nice pack n play type cribs. I would've probably used one of those if they'd been nicer at that time. No assembly really needed. Just unfold it.

Ikea furniture is actually easy. Step 1) Carefully open the box making sure not to accidentally scratch anything with an exacto knife by accident. 2) Carefully lay out all the pieces, making sure not to loose any of the screws, and if you are prudent, count all the screws to make sure you have them all, but I don't find that last part necessary. 3) Correctly identify which screws belong to which label/letter, keeping in mind that the screw head, thread, and length can all vary, and are all important. 4) Clear out enough room to properly assemble the thing, and put it in place, without scratching it or knocking anything down. 5) Build it in peace, and harmony. Using the instructions of course. Strength in building furniture comes first in having the Humility, and Intelligence, to use, and understand, the directions. Critically making sure all the holes line up, and make sure your piece is oriented the correct direction. It comes second in being able to put something together without instructions, but only if they are not available.
