This is a lovely piece of furniture but if you purchase it be prepared for the wait to get it. I waited months for mine and when it arrived there were a couple of pieces that had surface damage - luckily these are mostly hidden when it was built so it doesnt affect the overall look of the item - if it hadnt taken so long to get here though i probably would have arranged for a replacement for the damaged sections, but having had my tv and gadgets on the floor for months i really didnt want the hassle of further waiting. As advised in the description building this unit is a 2 person job, took approx 1hr to unpack and confirm i had all the parts then a further 4.5hrs for 2 people to build. The finished product looks lovely though and i hope to enjoy the use of it for many years.
