LVL23 2 Player Bartop Arcade Cabinet Kit for 19" to 23" Screens (HAPP or SANWA) (HAPP (HAPP joys, 28mm buttons))

No instructions in the box but it’s very easy to figure out. Plus the box has a sticker you can scan and it takes you to the instructions any way but either way it’s simple to figure out. You do need glue and a screw driver. A Philips head. I recommend gorilla wood glue or gorilla super glue. The gorilla super glue sets up faster. Make sure you use primer if you are going to paint it. I have two of these. A large one for a 32 inch and this smaller one. Both are great. I will say it fits only a 20 inch monitor. But for you pay for it it’s totally worth it. I always wanted an arcade and. Ow I have two with a raspberry pi 5 and pi 3. This thing is awesome!!!!! Beats what you’d pay for a prebuilt one and it’s totally customizable!!

No clear instructions on assembly.

GREAT ARCADE 2 PLAYER CABINET NO INSTRUCTIONS WOW HOW EASY IT GOES TOGETHER, A PUZZLE WAY WORTH DOING ESPECIALLY IN THIS ERA. WOOD IS SOLID AND HAS WEIGHT GREAT JOB!

As a lifelong arcade fan, I’ve always wanted a proper cabinet at home without breaking the bank. This LVL23 2-Player Bartop Arcade Cabinet Kit delivered exactly what I was looking for—a chance to build my own arcade setup, and I’m thrilled with the result! That said, there are a few things to keep in mind, but overall, it’s been an amazing experience. This bartop cabinet is the perfect balance between compact and authentic. Putting this together was a super fun project. The pre-cut panels fit together nicely, and the assembly instructions were clear enough (though I did need to double-check a few steps). It’s a rewarding build for anyone who loves tinkering, and seeing it come to life was such a cool experience. Having space for two players makes this cabinet even more exciting. The layout is spacious, and there’s plenty of room for joystick and button setups without feeling cramped. Perfect for epic matches of Street Fighter or Metal Slug! If you’re a fan of arcade gaming and love hands-on projects, this cabinet is a blast. It strikes a great balance between quality, affordability, and customizability. While it’s not entirely “plug-and-play,” that’s kind of the point—it’s about making it your own. Here’s the best part: I don’t have a fancy workshop or a dedicated space for projects. I built this beauty right on my kitchen table! The kit is manageable and doesn’t require big tools or lots of space, which made the whole process even more enjoyable. Seeing it come together piece by piece was such a rewarding experience.

Good overall quality. Would have been better with instructions. Also they could have added L brackets or added pilot holes.

doesnt have instructions for it but wasnt hard to set up do not listen to this 23 inch screen stuff it only fits a 20 inch monitor but all in all i love it

Same as other reviews. Zero instructions, but easy enough to put together. There are better precut DIY Arcades out there, but this one is here on Amazon and is still fun and worth it. Lots of videos available online on how to select internals. For a bartop unit, I would go with the 24 or the 24 vertical. The 23 is ok, but less monitor options available.
