This piece is really pretty! I gave it 4 stars as the flames look a little cheesy and some of the screws didnt have corresponding holes which was frustrating. The look of the flames began not to bother me. Just be aware they arent too realistic. The shelves are gorgeous and very tall and roomy! The laminate looks good and isnt easily scratched. I love that this piece is modern and clean and slightly funky. Get yourself a hand drill itll be so much easier to put this sucker together. If its in your cart... press buy!
