So far, this is perfect for what I needed it for - a specific spot inside my closet. I wanted a simple look and no handles that stuck out. It was fairly easy to put together by myself, except for one part when I needed to screw 4 screws into the top, which I was unable to do. However, the bolts that are there seem to keep it secure enough. It probably took around 2 hours - there are a LOT of pieces! Drawers work and fit well, no damage to any of the pieces that I can see. My tennis shoes do not fit under the bottom but some of my flatter sandals and other shoes do. This piece is very heavy. While I could shimmy the dresser into place after I built it, I could not lift the box by myself to get it into the house.
