Assemble: This piece is distracting to put together. Again make sure you have your own tools. Even though they provide everything you need it does not always work. My hand strength attempting to put this together gave me blisters so I pulled out my drill. Additionally, the top shelf is still loose on top of the bottom cabinet because the placement of screws is so difficult to screw in even with my drill I could not tighten them without stripping the screws. Overall, this piece gave me the most trouble assembling. 
Thoughts: I love how this piece looks, I wish I wasn’t so afraid of it falling apart due to screw placement but overall this piece is so pretty. I keep changing what I use it for. This item was supposed to go in my bathroom with the matching set but alas I measured wrong again and it was to tall and to wide to fit where I wanted. Hopefully in the future I will have all three pieces in a cohesive union. 
Cons: besides stability this piece is great.
