Furniture assembly refers to the process of putting together various pieces of furniture, often sold in flat-pack form. This typically involves following instructions to connect parts like legs, tops, and shelves using tools such as screwdrivers and wrenches. Many people choose to assemble their own furniture to save money and enjoy a sense of accomplishment. Some retailers, like IKEA, provide detailed manuals and online resources to assist customers. Alternatively, professional assembly services are available for those who prefer not to tackle the task themselves.
