This would be a 5-Star review if the instructions were clearer.

Very high quality construction!  The materials are such that this could become heirloom furniture handed down to others.  The instructions are somewhat difficult to follow.  I am not new to this kind of project, and working by myself it took several hours to build.  

There are many pages of "exploded diagrams" with no text.  When completed, one piece, assembled in the first hour, turned out to be backwards - with the unfinished surface visible and the finished hidden.  As this is NOT made from particleboard with laminate, like so much furniture today, I intend to just finish the unfinished wood myself.  

I would buy this again and would recommend it to others.  

I suggest a second pair of hands during construction and a very careful review of the instructions to avoid frustration.
