I recently purchased this vanity as a birthday gift to myself and i am extremely happy that i did. the piece is solid construction and the grain of the wood is pretty. it was simple to put together and would be pretty as is but can be finished to your personal liking. the mirror opens and closes easily as well. the only reason i didn't give this 5 stars is the red felt that lines the drawers and divider is very thin and chintzy, i will be replacing with something a little more substantial. pros: easy to assemblecons: felt lining is very thin
