The only reason for the one star is because it is a beautiful piece. The instructions are absolutely terrible. All the other reviewer‘s are correct. In addition the areas where you need to put screws in or nails in the back are not wide enough and wind up splitting the wood in the inside causing damage to the actual piece. My husband and I are very proficient at putting together furniture pieces. This is not new to us but this piece. It came well packaged with no damage but the horrible instructions and how thin the walls are made it impossible to put together. It took hours. End result we have a furniture piece with a lot of damages. So sad by this!  It was so expensive.
