stacychase Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 I bought this pot holder thingee to go over the stove from crateandbarrel.com the other day. When reading the information on their website, it state that there was some assembly required. Well the box arrived today and this thingee has about 2,500 parts to it......Some assembly required my ass!!!!!Anyone handy with tools? I will provide the beer.....

phatman Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 ...aha...worse than that is when the box says one person can assemble...and four of you cant figure that shit out...this is esp. predominant in furniture in a box...connect A to B with the dowels provided while performing a handstand...and dont forget to use that special allen wrench we included in the box that was made for someone with hands the size of a newborn...good luck...

Why don't you just drink all the beer until the pot holder looks assembled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
