This item IS very cute. However, it needs some finessing with the assembly. The back board - the thinning black board that you see from the front, outside - needs to be assembled with nails (at the most) and definitely not screws. I've learned my lesson that if I put together another piece of furniture like this (that includes a backing board) to use tacks or nails and definitely not screws. I would also recommend using a black marker or paint for the sliding door "rails" on the bottom. They stick out like a sore thumb - and this is likely what I'll do. Also, the recessed holes for the internal shelf (for my unit at least) were offset a lot more than the instructions. It's offset enough that I wouldn't put anything of significance on or below it. Mine are maybe 1/4" from the front edge. On the instructions, it shows them as being centered with the edges. Maybe oversight on the instructions? Either way - seems precarious.
