Spending 6 hours putting together flatpack furniture...

We needed more storage only to find it's a hair too wide even without the optional towel rack.

Cat likes it though.

You don't know about measuring stuff and need six hours to assemble one measly cupboard?

Is this a cartoon?
- 6 hours with instructions where even simple things are mis-spelled? ("Fornt!") Yeah. Flat pack is incredibly infuriating.
  
  ikea flat pack is great. sounds like you bought cheap garbage
This seems like a perfect example of a post that belongs in !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world
- If you think it's only mildly infuriating, you haven't spent 6 hours on a kitchen floor fighting with pieces of crappy plywood. ;)
  
  This community was built with stories of homeless people getting crushed by bulldozers brought in to destroy designated homeless camps and all the awful things happening with U.S. politics in mind.
  
  By that scale, yes, your situation is mildly infuriating.
I bought a fridge that didn't fit under my cabinets. Nothing a reciprocating saw couldn't fix.
- Now it's custom!
Flatpacks are the reason why I'm thinking heavily on building my own furniture...
