Do you have to hammer in the side plastic pieces? The middle ones snapped in but the side pieces don't seem to fit.

Some of them were really tough to push in, but I was able to get them in without any tools. Wiggling them around a little while pushing seemed to help as well...with a decent amount of force they will fit.

Sure, you can install one or none of the side pieces. Just make sure it will fit without those side pieces. As long as you measure you should be fine.

I think you may have assembled it wrong by using some of the wrong hardware. When I assembled and tightened to a firm snug level, they adjust perfectly. I would re-evaluate the pieces you have used

It's supposed to snap together, but we had difficulties! Make sure the little slots end up on the right sides or the wrap around cover does not work. You are not missing anything, just some elbow grease. (My husband ended up using screws and put it together all wrong.)

It would require the use of a hammer. I just used my hands to force the units together, and as a result they stand up but I probably couldn't sit on them or anything. They work kind of like tinker toys, if you know what I mean.

No tools! Right side fits into slot, left side is pulled in slightly (like a spring is inside) and fits into slot on left. Little rubber pieces can be placed as you like; FINISHED!!!!! This was installed in seconds by a 73 year old woman.

That means you're really not clicking it into place. You have to push very hard (and pull really hard when clicking it out of place) If you look at the very top the legs, there will be a little circle with a hook like thing on botg sides. That has togo into the little blue space at the top. It's really tricky but you will hear the click and make sure it's clicked on all 4 sides

I have 2 of these units and both were easy to assemble, maybe the plastic fingers that fit together may have a bur or possibly the plastic did not mold correctly, good luck !

You have to make sure all of the edges are aligned. I did put a little W D 40 on some of the latches. Helped some.

Susanne if I remember right they just have to be firmly pulled straight out past the pieces that act as stops so they won't pull out once you have it assembled. It takes quite a bit of pulling pressure so don't be afraid to tug on them.

The legs are a tight fit so that they don't feel wobbly. I found that by gently tapping them with a rubber mallet (or a board wrapped in rags) so that the metal is not damaged by a regular hammer, they connected fine.

Did you line up the outside edges? It takes some hand strength to hold the sides in (with the batteries in) and then pop the other two sides on top. I had to get my husband to do it, and it took him about 20 minutes.

Yes. Rather snugly, which is good. When you hammer then in make sure all the teeth are inside the opening of the wheel and hammer very straight. I bent one of the plastic teeth on the first wheel and used more care after that.

Yes the pieces snap together. Although this is lower quality then a wood set and has it's own issues (mine had missing pieces etc). The quality is low for the plastic so it might break.

Yes, that's the way I assembled mine. I believe they are screws meant just for this sort of plastic. I've had no issues with mine since installation.

Welcome to the club my friend! I took a look at some youtube videos to see how to put it together and the pieces don't really fit well but I was still able to put it all together with some help and since then I have kept it that way.

I push down on the plastic piece and it seems to come loose and pop loose. They dont tell you what to do ...I hope i am doing the right thing. I do love it though. This is the second one that i have had. The last wasdifferent. I am sure you will like it.
