It is a cute, sturdy little nightstand. Put this thing together myself! The directions are just pictures, no words, so had to take some items off and put back on correctly. There are some knicks and scratches which came from the manufacturer, but hardly noticeable in my opinion. I bought all three, including the 2 dressers and so far so good. It does take hours and hours. This includes cleaning up all the tiny Styrofoam pieces all over the house. But they are packaged well so no damage during shipping. I like the dark gray color, it goes well with all my beachy blue accents in the room!
