I wanted to give this 4 stars, but I did not because the instructions are horrible. I don't understand why these companies will not add a few words on the instruction booklet to help along the way. After I assembled the table I found that the draw would not close flush to the table. The table is sturdy and solid and I like the dark color. Overall, the table looks good near the door, but I will not purchase any furniture from this company because of the lack of decent instructions.
