The first one that came was severely damaged. Getting a new one was a very simple process (thank you for that!) The second one wasn't drilled in the right places, and we struggled to get it together. The shelves tip up in the front, and the middle shelf is bowed slightly because of where the drill holes were. It is a beautiful piece of furniture- the wood and stain is nice. We'd have been thrilled with it if it was drilled properly.
