Considering I did not put a lot of money into this product, I got what I paid for.  I needed a narrow nightstand, and this fit that requirement, but this is not very tall. the area on top is small as well, so I only have room for one lamp per stand.   For the money I spent, which wasn't too much, I had difficulty putting the first one together, getting the top on backwards after I had already nailed on the backing.  If the pre-assembly costs were less, I would have ordered it pre-assembled.  If you are going cheap, expect a lesser-quality item.
