Overall, very sturdy and was just what I was hoping for. Took about 2 hours to build by myself. One set of pieces came mislabeled so it didn't match what the instructions were telling me to do but after some investigation, I figured out what pieces were labeled incorrectly and got it built. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because of minor damage. A few of the boards had dents and scrapes on the edges and some of the black paint on the hardware was scratched and gouged. Luckily that damage was on the back side so it isn't visible after being pushed up against the wall. All in all, good piece of furniture; Just taking a gamble with what (if any) damage will be endured during shipping.
