When it arrived and you saw the individual pieces, it didn't seem well made, but once it was put together it is quite sturdy.  If you have the extra money, it's worth paying to have someone else put it together.  It took two of us at least four hours to assemble the vanity.  Lay all your parts out, be organized and really look at the drawings to get it right the first time so you don't have to redo your work.  Some of the drawer pulls were defective but I was able to receive a credit (rather than waiting for them to ship new ones) and I just replaced them with something else.
