When you first open the box and pull out all of the pieces, it seems a little overwhelming, but once it's put together, it is so worth it! I love the rich tone and color. It's perfect for the space and purpose that I needed it for (TV stand). Great amount of storage and perfect for tucking away all of the media components. One of the boards was damaged during delivery, but it was the underside of the top so no one will ever see it, so I still gave it 5 stars.
