Similar to other items in this range, they look great when completed. The wood is sturdy and thick, and both feels and smells lovely. My boyfriend put it together and it took around half an hour. The instructions could have been clearer, and the parts aren't numbered in the instructions so it is a bit of challenge to get them together correctly but not much worse than other flatpack instructions from other suppliers. We're happy with this good value purchase and would likely buy from this range again.
