MALM
I'm currently locked in battle with the Ikea MALM 6-drawer chest, which comes in two boxes with approximately 9000 separate pieces. We managed to get it out of of the store yesterday (after getting one wrong box, and then correcting our mistake), into a 4-door compact car (with three passengers), and up to our apartment on the 4th floor (not so hard, with ramps and a hand truck).
I was going great guns with the assembly until I made one boo-boo putting together the first drawer, which proved very difficult to undo, since the part I screwed in incorrectly was not made to be unscrewable. Not cool! I'll still be able to get the whole thing together adequately, but my efforts will not be 100% perfect, as I'd hoped.

"locked in battle," heh heh. MALM does look pretty formidable in that photo.
