I would have given it 5 stars if it weren't for the poor fitting pieces. At first it's not bad, but once you start connecting more parts it gets too tight to be able to screw everything in properly. Maybe that was just mine? It's still very sturdy without all of the screws though. Just annoying is all. It is a very gorgeous console table. I'm using it as a bookcase with artwork hanging overhead and it is beautiful! Don't worry about it being too short also. I worried about that but its honestly the perfect height.
