I found this exact same product at Target for like 60 more. This product is easy to assemble with 2 people help. If you use the proper hardware it secures correctly and makes it sturdier as it is only made out of particle board. The corner shows white stuff because of the veneer layer to cover the particle board so what I did was I used a kiwi shoe polish and wiped the whole furniture with it and it looked like a real wood instead of a shiny veneer fake looking wood surface. For the price it is worth it.
