these are measured and square and glued up well, but there is zero finish work done on them. meaning not sanded and not polyed, so very unappealing to the touch. i put several coats of matte poly and sanded that lightly for a more appealing touch. for the price they could have at least sanded lightly and done a single coat of poly. my suspicion from the strong smell in the box is that the order comes in and they slap a stain on it and drop it in a box to ship, no time for drying the stain and applying poly.
