For the price and the expected quality, it meets the bill. It was a very complex assembly job. It is not a high quality piece of furniture but we knew that going in to it. The drawers do not slide easily and the doors do not line up perfectly. For the price however, it is very cute. Am using it as a nightstand and to store shoes. There are holes to add another shelf and it would be ideal if it had another shelf because it could then hold 3 rows of sandal/summer shoes. I have the off white finish and it is very refreshing and blends with our mountain, country pine.
