This buffet is beautiful and very well made. We had originally purchased a different buffet from Wayfair a few months ago. It was delivered pretty much already assembled in one giant box, but because of that, it was damaged on the corners from shipping. So we had to return it because of the damages. Of course, it was no longer available after that to reorder. So I have been looking for another buffet since then. This one was priced right and looked beautiful. It is actually 3 separate units that you can put side by side to create the full buffet, or if you wanted to, you could place the units around your room separately. I really liked that option, plus I knew that if it was 3 separate units, it would be shipped better and it was actually flat boxed and needed to be assembled. But I was ok with that, knowing it wasn’t going to be busted up. Assembly was pretty simple and all of the pieces are very thick and sturdy. I would highly recommend this buffet.
