Great wood.  Nice design.  This is amazing now that it's put together, but a pain to assemble.  We assemble furniture all the time.  Unfortunately, many of the holes on this were slightly off.  One was so seriously off we had to drill a new one.  If you have patience and are handy (& have tools) take it on.  It might be worth it.  We, on the other hand, had bought 2 and will return the one that's still in the box.
