You have to do some assembly when you get it which is difficult to do on your own. You screw together the separate parts which are not perfectly matched and no matter how tight you get it, it will still be slightly wobbly. It says the weight limit is 250 pounds and I'm afraid to have too much weight on it. The upholstery is a bit thin but overall it looks great. Everything else in my apartment looks better with this piece. With the price, you can't expect extremely high quality so with everything factored it, it's a great product at its price point.
