While it is stunningly beautiful, the directions to put the darn thing together took some time to understand. The photos in the manual don't match the directions! The legs shown also are not the original legs - these spindle legs were shipped separately (without the proper nuts and bolts, but I'm assuming/hoping Wayfair will replace those in short order), and the manual shows wooden legs (though the box did not contain those). All that said, it is a stunning design and does seem like a sturdy piece!
