Reading other reviews with complaints about the plumbing, those are correct, it's just cheap parts, with that said, the tub is sturdy. The hardware is a little hap hazard and missing washers. The assembly is easy but not at all documented. Just the same it's not overly complicated and the exploded picture of the unit is fine to figure it out. I'm happy with it overall, the exterior of the tub is unfinished and the cut edges of the sheets are sharp, and you would have to file or grind them down if you're going to be in contact with them. Assembly took me about 45 min, and it takes a long time to remove the plastic film. some of the film is under the assembled pieces from the factory. I still don't quite get why the 34" model is so much cheaper.
